KPMG has been asked by the New Zealand Treasury ("Treasury") to undertake a review of the New Zealand PPP procurement process in light of the experience gained since the approach was adopted. Further, the review will consider international developments in PPP procurement processes in comparable countries and whether any recent international developments should be considered for New Zealand.
This consultation process is to inform the development of Treasury's guidance and processes for future PPP procurements, and ensure that the perspectives and observations of key participants in the PPP market can be considered as part of the review.
The intention is that the review will consider changes that contribute towards achieving:
- greater participation in and more competitive procurement of PPP projects in New Zealand.
- improvements to the standard of responses received as part of PPP procurement processes.
- reducing unnecessary costs for both procuring agencies and bidding parties.
Ultimately, the goal is to improve the value for money and outcomes from services and infrastructure projects delivered to New Zealanders |
