Dear Mr Randle
Request for information 2018-056 – extension required
I refer to your request for information dated 19 March 2018 which was received by Greater
Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) on 19 March 2018. You have requested the following
information:
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-02.01.01-Greater-Wellington-
Bus-Services-Request-for-Tender.pdf). 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

* 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).

Data Room as part of the PTOM RFT process ?
