Requst for the Bus Unit information for the PTOM Bus and Rail Contracts

Tony Randle made this Official Information request to Wellington Regional Council

The request was partially successful.

From: Tony Randle

Dear Wellington Regional Council,

The GWRC recently announced the completion of the PTOM bus contracts for the Wellington Region (http://www.gw.govt.nz/brand-new-buses-he...).

I note that a key element of the PTOM approach is the rating and publication of a "League table" which consists of the "Commerciality Ratio" for each contracted unit (Refer page 33 of PTOM update to GWRC Council Workshop http://www.gw.govt.nz/assets/PTOM/9-PDF-...).

1) Can I please have a copy of the estimated "League table" all the PTOM PT "Units" including the commerciality ratio both bus and rail) ?

2) Can I please have a copy of any spreadsheet, report or other information that outlines the calculation of the estimated Commerciality Ratio for all the PT "Units" contracted under PTOM (both bus and rail) ?

The GWRC has also released some information about the PTOM tender process including the Bus Request for Tender (RFT) (http://www.gw.govt.nz/assets/PTOM/A-02.0...). This document outlines a range of information provided to tenderers via the "data room" Refer Section 6.2. The RFT specifically noted the following information was to be provided via the data room:
* Full Bus Unit specifications (PTOM Service Specifications) including timetables
* Bus Unit Timetable information
* the 3 most recent years’ patronage data on the Wellington region Bus Network
* Information Memorandum
* Supporting documentation
* Any other information added by GWRC from time to time.
* Questions raised by Tenderers and responding answers

3) Can I please have a copy of the "Full Bus Unit specifications (PTOM Service Specifications)" provided to tenderers via the Data Room as part of the PTOM RFT process ? For the sake of clarity I would expect this to include Patronage and revenue information for each unit (or only patronage is the unit is Commercial).
4) Can I please have a copy of the "Bus Unit Timetable information" provided to tenderers via the Data Room as part of the PTOM RFT process ?
5) Can I please have a copy of "the 3 most recent years’ patronage data on the Wellington region Bus Network" provided to tenderers via the Data Room as part of the PTOM RFT process ?
6) Can I please have a copy of the "Information Memorandum" provided to tenderers via the Data Room as part of the PTOM RFT process ?
7) Can I please have a copy of the "Supporting documentation" provided to tenderers via the Data Room as part of the PTOM RFT process ?
8) Can I please have a copy of the "any other information added by GWRC from time to time" provided to tenderers via the Data Room as part of the PTOM RFT process ?
9) Can I please have a copy of the Questions raised by Tenderers and responding answers provided to tenderers via the Data Room as part of the PTOM RFT process ?

I also note that similar information would expect to have been created for the "seven direct appointed units with NZ Bus and Mana" that were not covered by the tender process.

10) Can I please have a copy of the "Full Bus Unit specifications (PTOM Service Specifications)" provided to NZ Bus and Mana for the "seven direct appointed units with NZ Bus and Mana" that have now been awarded ? For the sake of clarity I would expect this to include Patronage and revenue information for each unit (or only patronage is the unit is Commercial).
11) Can I please have a copy of the "Bus Unit Timetable information" provided to NZ Bus and Mana for the "seven direct appointed units with NZ Bus and Mana" that have now been awarded ?
12) Can I please have a copy of "the 3 most recent years’ patronage data on the Wellington region Bus Network" provided to NZ Bus and Mana for the "seven direct appointed units with NZ Bus and Mana" that have now been awarded ?
13) Can I please have a copy of the "Information Memorandum" provided to NZ Bus and Mana for the "seven direct appointed units with NZ Bus and Mana" that have now been awarded ?

If this information is held in electronic form, then it is preferred that the information is provided in its complete and original electronic format. Also can the GWRC please acknowledge this information request ?

Yours faithfully,

Tony Randle
