Waitī Waters Limited is a newly formed water services company, established by four Wairarapa and Tararua councils, in partnership with Rangitāne and Ngāti Kahungunu: • South Wairarapa District Council • Masterton District Council • Carterton District Council • Tararua District Council. Waitī Waters has been created under the Government's Local Water Done Well reform to deliver drinking water, wastewater, and stormwater services across the shareholding councils' service areas. It is a greenfield organisation and currently has no IT infrastructure of its own. Waitī Waters will become fully operational as a water services provider on Day One. Getting the right technology foundation in place, on time and without disruption, is critical to a successful launch. We are looking for one or more suppliers to provide finance, asset, customer and billing solutions and related services, including solution establishment and ongoing services to Waitī Waters in readiness for operational go-live on 1 July 2027 (Day One) and beyond. Waitī Waters is planning to go live on the solutions being procured under this RFP by 1 April 2027, which will allow time to stabilise the solutions prior to Day One. Please register via email at procurement@waitiwaters.co.nz for a supplier briefing on 11 June. You will receive further details on timing for the briefing following registration. A further document - Master Services Agreement - will be provided when finalised. Contact: Kim Gordon Email: procurement@waitiwaters.co.nz
A strong tender response is clear, compliant, and backed by evidence. These steps apply to most Australian and New Zealand public tenders.
Open the official listing and download the full tender pack. Note the response schedules, evaluation criteria, mandatory conditions, and the exact closing time and lodgement method.
Check licences, insurances, certifications, and any conformance requirements before you commit. A quick bid or no-bid decision saves days of wasted effort on a tender you cannot win.
Respond to each evaluation criterion directly and back your claims with concrete examples, referees, and past performance. Address the buyer’s stated need, not a generic capability statement.
Submit through the source portal well before the deadline. Late or incorrectly lodged bids are almost always rejected, so leave time for uploads, portal errors, and last-minute questions.
