New Build Housing - Budget 2026 (Woodbourne and Burnham)

*IMPORTANT* - create a SmartProcure profile at https://nzdf.bravosolution.com in order to access the NZDF procurement portal. This will enable you to subscribe and access ROI documentation by searching code 262. An online brief will occur at 1:00PM on Monday 06 July. There is no requirement for site visits at this first ROI stage, as all information essentially comes from you the respondent (ie. previous experience, procedures, key personnel experience etc). __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As a result of Budget 2026, the New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF) is delivering new housing at two sites - Woodbourne (near Blenheim) and Burnham (near Christchurch). We are looking for established Main Contractors (with design team) who can manage the full design and delivery of high-quality turnkey homes for servicemembers and their families. Homes will be standalone and single-level, constructed largely on vacant land previously used for housing, with requirement for associated on-lot and minor off-lot civils. All works will be under an NZS3916 Design and Build Contract with NZDF Special Conditions. The indicative spread of new housing per site is as follows, though if pricing allows us to deliver more within our funding envelope we will do so: Woodbourne - 8 homes at RNZAF Base Woodbourne, awarded to one supplier under one contract. Christchurch - 17 homes at Burnham Military Camp, awarded to one supplier under one contract. This is a two-stage market approach. This first Registration of Interest (ROI) stage is focussed on the experience and capability of the supplier, and does not require any site-specific solution to be put forward. Those who are shortlisted from this stage will participate in a second stage Request for Proposals, which will require detailed site-specific solutions to be submitted. The ROI includes our requirements and specifications for housing.
