The AoG CCS contract is one of the All-of-Government panels offered by New Zealand Government Procurement, a branch within the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment.
This panel covers the services that professional consultants provide in relation to construction or works projects. These include architecture, engineering, quantity surveying and project management services, among others.
Joining the AoG CCS panel is easy and gives you the opportunity to offer your services to a wide range of government agencies. More than 130 government agencies are required by the Government Procurement Rules to use the construction consultancy services contract.
Agencies can view details for all the providers on this page.
Marketplace is an online platform run by the Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) that lets New Zealand and international businesses offer their products and services directly to New Zealand government agencies.
The AoG CCS contract uses Marketplace for the on-boarding of new agencies and providers.
To become an AoG CCS provider, you need to complete an online application form. We will assess the application against the relevant criteria and notify you as to whether your application has been successful.
If an application is declined, we will give you reason(s) as to why it was unsuccessful.

There is no deadline for applying to join AoG CCS. It is an open panel that you may apply to join at any time. If your application was previously declined, you should address the reasons for this before re-applying.
We will not publish any list of unsuccessful applicants.
The application takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes to complete if you prepare your answers in advance.
Our guidance document outlines on-boarding questions and criteria, and lists the various types of information needed for your application. This includes:
The person within your business coordinating the application process (the Administrator) will receive a confirmation email once the application has been submitted and is notified whether the application has been approved or declined.
This person will also become the initial primary business contact for agencies. If you wish to change the primary business contact for your business, please email the professional services portfolio team.
If you are appointed to the panel, we will also request additional information from you to support our interim solution (for example, region of service delivery, and pricing information).
This is a list of the questions and criteria that is applied for the application process for the AoG construction consultancy services panel.
It is up to each agency to determine the secondary procurement process that it will follow in relation to each project and in accordance with its internal procurement policies.
The Government Procurement Rules set out how agencies should select providers via secondary procurement processes.
GETS will still be the Government’s main e-tendering platform. Agencies may use GETS to issue closed competitive tenders or alternatively they may contact your business directly to request a quote.
The Collaborative Marketplace Agreement is the contract between the Crown (ie MBIE and DIA) and the provider.
It is made up of two parts:
These terms apply to all providers in Marketplace, across a wide range of different industries and sectors. It sets out the process for applying to be a Marketplace provider, establishes the construction consultancy services panel (among others) and outlines the terms and conditions for using the Marketplace platform.
These terms are specific to construction consultancy services. They state that the Crown version of the Conditions of Contract for Consultancy Services (CCCS) will apply to a relationship between a provider and a government agency for construction consultancy services, unless those parties agree to use a different form of contract.

An APA is the contract between you and a government agency. As a default (and as mentioned above), the Crown version of the Conditions of Contract for Consultancy Services (CCCS) should be used as the APA unless you and the agency agree to use a different form of contract.
