Responsibilities
The Committee is established to assist the Chief Executive
to undertake the management procedure of ensuring sound probity procedures are
followed in relation to procurement of goods and services necessary to deliver
on the work programme and operations outlined in Council’s adopted Annual
plan.
It will ensure that reasonable purchasing procedures have
been followed in awarding contracts and will provide an efficient mechanism for
documenting the approvals for those contracts.
Within a framework where contracts are an operational matter
delegated to the Chief Executive, this Committee will consider all tenders
beyond the Chief Executive’s financial delegations. The Chief
Executive may refer contracts within his financial delegations which are
sensitive or may impact on the reputation of the Council.
The Chief Executive has power to award contracts up to $20
million alone and the power to award contracts up to $22.5 million jointly with
the mayor and relevant committee chair.
The Committee will have responsibility for:
·
Awarding of contracts greater than $22.5
million; and
·
Awarding of contracts less than $20 million
which are sensitive or may impact on the reputation of the Council where the
Chief Executive refers the matter to the Committee;
·
Oversight over the tendering and procurement
process and procedures of the Governing Body and local board; and
·
Developing a tendering and procurement strategy
as policy for recommendation to the Governing Body for adoption.
From time to time the Committee may advise the Chief
Executive and Council on changes to the Procurement and Contracts probity
procedures.
Powers
All powers necessary to perform the Committee’s
responsibilities.
Except:
(a) powers
that the Governing Body cannot delegate or has retained to itself (section 2)

Procurement of refuse collection services
File No.: CP2016/19751
Purpose
1.
To note an update on Auckland Council’s procurement of refuse
collection services.
Executive
summary
2.
In 2012 Auckland Council adopted a Waste
Management and Minimisation Plan (WMMP) which set an aspirational goal of zero
waste to landfill by 2040 for Auckland. It also included a more specific target
of reducing kerbside waste to landfill by 30 per cent by 2018.
3.
To achieve these goals the WMMP proposed a
number of major service changes to standardise waste collection across the
region and divert waste from landfill.
4.
While implementing these service changes, the council also has to
ensure continuity of refuse collection services. The council currently receives
waste collection services through seven main contracts, whose current terms
will expire between March 2017 and June 2018.
5.
The council has developed a procurement approach
for refuse collection services that will enable it to maintain continuity and
quality of refuse collection services while also managing the introduction of
the multiple service changes.
6.
Details of how the council will achieve these
goals are outlined in the closed report included on this business agenda.
7.
It is recommended that the Tenders and Procurement
Committee note the information provided in this report, which will inform their
decision making on the closed item also included on this agenda.
|
Recommendation
That the Tenders and
Procurement Committee:
a)
note the information contained in this report,
on procurement of refuse collection services, enables further transparency on
the topic due for discussion in the public excluded part of the meeting.
|
Comments
8.
In 2012 Auckland Council adopted a Waste
Management and Minimisation Plan (WMMP). The plan set various targets
including:
i)
an aspirational goal of zero waste to landfill
by 2040, turning waste into resources
ii)
reducing household rubbish by 30 per cent by
2018
iii)
significantly reducing waste to landfill.
9.
To achieve these goals the WMMP proposed a
number of major service changes to standardise waste collection across the
region and reduce the amount of household waste being sent to landfill.
10. To enable these service changes, the Tenders and Procurement Committee
approved a procurement plan to support implementation of the Waste Management
and Minimisation Plan (resolution number TP/2013/1), in September 2013. This
procurement plan set out the plan for procuring refuse collection services,
among many other waste collection services.
11. Subsequently, in October 2015, the committee approved further
extensions to the terms of three specific refuse collection contracts
(resolution number TEN/2015/48).
12. Since these contract extensions were approved, the council has rolled
out several major waste collection service changes to the Auckland region.
These include:
i)
introduction of an on-property, booked in
advance inorganics collection service across the region (except for the Hauraki
Gulf Islands)
ii)
establishment of community recycling centres
iii)
introduction of a fortnightly recycling
collection service in bins to the legacy Rodney, North Shore and Waitakere City
Council areas.
iv)
planned roll out of recycling collection
services in rural Franklin for October 2016
13. In the future there will be a period of sustained change for
Auckland residents up until 2020 and beyond as we implement the other changes
needed to meet the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan.
14. In order to implement these actions the council needs to make a
number of significant changes to existing refuse collection services.
15. Refuse collection services are currently provided to Auckland
Council through seven main contracts for a total annual value of approximately
$17.6 million.
16. These contracts are due to expire between March 2017 and June 2018
and the council has the discretion to extend the terms of some of these
contracts but not all.
17. The council has developed a procurement strategy for refuse
collections that will enable it to:
i)
achieve lower overall costs for provision of
refuse collection services
ii)
maintain quality and continuity of refuse
collection services, while managing the introduction of multiple service
changes over a relatively short time period.
iii)
meet the goals and outcomes of the Waste
Minimisation and Management Plan.
18. Details of how the council will achieve these goals are outlined in
a confidential report included on this business agenda. These details have been
kept confidential under sections 7(2)(h) and 7(2)(i) of the Local Government
and Official Information Act because they contain commercially sensitive
information that, if released, could prejudice the council’s ability to
carry out commercial activities and negotiations with waste services’
providers.
19. It is recommended that the committee note the information provided
in this update on the council’s procurement of refuse collection
services. The information provided in this report enables further transparency
on the following item which will be discussed in the public excluded part of
the meeting: ‘Confidential: Procurement Strategy for Refuse Collection
Services’
Consideration
Local
board views and implications
20.
No local board views were sought in the preparation of this report.
However, local board members are kept informed on the provision of waste
services and the implementation of the WMMP through regular updates from the
Infrastructure and Environmental Services department. In addition there was
significant consultation as part of the development of the WMMP.
Māori
impact statement
21.
Māori were not consulted during the preparation of this report.
However, it is recognised that the collection, disposal and minimisation of
waste to landfill is of significant interest to mana whenua in their role as
kaitiaki of natural environments.
22.
As part of the overall implementation of the WMMP, the council’s
staff are engaging with interested mana whenua and maata waka organisations on
a number of projects related to waste minimisation and resource recovery. For
example, the council has employed Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei to
deliver a Para Kore Ki Tamaki (zero waste marae programme) to 12 marae across Tāmaki
Makaurau.
Implementation
23.
There are no implementation issues arising from
this report. Any implementation issues relating to the procurement of refuse
collection services have been noted in report titled “Confidential:
Procurement Strategy for Refuse Collection Services”.

Supplier Recommendations for Te Auaunga Awa Project
File No.: CP2016/20500
Purpose
1.
To note an update on procurement of the Te Auaunga Awa – Walmsley
and Underwood Reserves Project.
Executive
summary
2.
Te Auaunga Awa – Walmsley and Underwood Reserves project is an
urban stream restoration project to facilitate growth focused on Te Auaunga Awa
(Oakley Creek).
3.
The project involves stream widening and restoration of 1.3 kilometres
of Te Auaunga Awa, between Sandringham Road Extension and Richardson Road.
4.
As part of the project two culverts will be replaced with new road
bridges. A number of other assets will also be provided through the project,
such as pedestrian bridges, cycleways and an out-door classroom (see project
map in attachment A).
5.
The project will reduce flood risk and enable development of the area
around the awa (creek) with new residential housing.
6.
In May 2016 the Tenders and Procurement Committee approved the
procurement plan for the Te Auaunga Awa project.
7.
A procurement process was then carried out which has now identified a
preferred supplier for the construction of the project. This is discussed in
more detail in a closed item on the meeting agenda: ‘Confidential:
Suppliers Recommendations for Te Auaunga Awa Project.’
|
Recommendation/s
That the Tenders and
Procurement Committee:
a)
note the information contained in this report,
on procurement for the Te Auaunga Awa project, enables further transparency
on the topic due for discussion in the public excluded part of the meeting.
|
Comments
Background
8.
The primary objective of the Te Auaunga Awa – Walmsley and
Underwood Reserves project is to enable growth and the provision of housing in
the Te Auaunga Awa (Oakley Creek) area.
9.
Widening the awa will significantly reduce the existing flood plain in
the area and allow the removal of historic development controls set on private
properties in the vicinity of the creek.
10.
The project is located in an area ideally suited to redevelopment and
intensification as it is already serviced with existing infrastructure and has
important planned infrastructure servicing the area in the future (including
the central interceptor and light rail).
11.
In addition to this, Housing New Zealand, who own 60 per cent of the
housing stock in the area, have expressed support for the project. They are
interested in redeveloping to provide more housing in the area once development
controls have been removed.
Scope of the project
12.
The project involves stream widening and naturalisation of 1.3
kilometres of Te Auaunga Awa, between Sandringham Road Extension and Richardson
Road (see map of project area in Attachment A).
13.
The existing culverts at Richardson Road and Beagle Avenue will be
replaced with new road bridges to improve the conveyance of flood flows. A full
width cycleway connecting Hendon Reserve to War Memorial Park, along with a
network of secondary pathways and a pedestrian underpass at Richardson Road
will also be provided.
14.
Two new pedestrian bridges will be constructed, including the Owairaka
Pedestrian Bridge to connect the south side of Oakley Creek to Owairaka Park.
An outdoor school room will also be provided for the education of local
students and a number of outdoor spaces, such as playgrounds, will be created
in the Walmsley and Underwood Reserves.
15.
The project also involves extensive planting of up to 120,000 native
plants alongside the awa and in the two reserves. This planting will be
delivered through a separate contract.
Strategic social and economic outcomes
16.
Appointment of Te Whangai Trust: Using a Smart procurement approach
council has identified Te Whangai Trust as the preferred contractor to provide
the native plants for the project (budget $2 million).
17.
Te Whangai Trust will work closely with community partners such as
schools, mana whenua and community groups to establish the native plant nursery
at Wesley Intermediate (a local school). The native nursery will focus on
providing life skills, training and work readiness opportunities to local
people who are not currently in training or employment.
18.
Youth training scheme: Responding to local community concerns about
youth unemployment, council has provided funding for 20 local unemployed
refugee and migrant youth to participate in a beginners’ level
construction course at a local tertiary institution (Unitec).
19.
The preferred supplier for construction of this project has agreed to
employ at least five of these youth on the project as apprentices. Youth will
also be provided with ongoing mentorship to aid them into employment.
Consideration
Local
board views and implications
20.
The project impacts on three local boards: Albert-Eden, Puketāpapa
and Whau. Improving the health of waterways in their area is a priority for all
three boards, who all contribute funding to environmental projects around Te
Auaunga Awa.
21.
From the inception of the project all three boards have been involved in
design workshops and operational meetings. Boards were also represented at a
governance level by the environmental portfolio holder for the Puketāpapa
Local Board who sat on the steering group of the project. The Puketāpapa
Local Board will also support the cost of mentoring any local youth employed as
apprentices on the project.
22.
All three local boards have indicated strong support for the project and
given landowner consent to any works on public land in their board area.
Māori
impact statement
23.
Stormwater management, and its impact on waterways, is of key
significance to Māori. The role of mana whenua as kaitiaki for the
environment is identified in The Schedule of Issues of Significance to
Māori in Tāmaki Makarau.
24.
Council has undertaken intensive engagement with five iwi on the
project: Ngāti Tamaoho, Ngāti Whātua Ōrakei, Ngāi Tai
Ki Tāmaki, Te Kawerau a Maki and Te Akitai Waiohua. Iwi have been involved
both in the operational group for the project and the steering group.
25.
Feedback from mana whenua has been integrated into various aspects of
the project, for example, more wetlands and swales have been included in the
design to improve water quality, Māori artworks will be incorporated into
the bridge and other infrastructural elements, and traditional Māori games
will be recognised in the design of playgrounds.
26.
Engagement with mana whenua will be ongoing throughout the construction
phase.
Implementation
27. If the
supplier recommendations outlined in the report on the closed section of this
business agenda are approved, the project will start construction in November
2016.
