RCP managed a large multidisciplinary team to develop the special Blueprint Plan for the recovery of central Christchurch following the earthquakes of 2010/11.

It involved a highly considered options and feasibility assessment phase for the anchor projects. It was a fast-tracked project – the Blueprint was delivered to government within 100 days. 

Te Kaha is a bookend to the Canterbury earthquake rebuild. The last of the anchor projects, the new $690m state-of-the-art multi-use arena will position Christchurch as a world-class destination for events – year-round.  

It will deliver a 30,000-seat covered arena for hosting major sporting matches and international concerts, with a scalable seating capacity to ensure it remains fit for purpose for smaller events.  

Christchurch City Council engaged RCP to provide project and design management services, and contract administration of the pre-contract services agreement (PCSA). The PCSA is the second of a three-stage procurement process.
