Ministry of Education seeks supplier input on new Regional Supplier Programme for school property.
The Ministry of Education's School Infrastructure group is seeking market feedback on a proposed Regional Supplier Programme (RSP) to streamline school property delivery across New Zealand. The RSP aims to replace multiple existing panels with a simpler, regionally-based model providing greater visibility of upcoming work, consistent commercial terms, and stronger links between performance and future opportunities. Suppliers are invited to attend webinars on 16 and 18 June 2026 or provide written feedback by 26 June 2026. This is a market engagement, not a tender, to shape the future procurement approach for school construction and maintenance projects.
