Having already delivered a two-year energy efficiency advisory service, Torque IP's engagement was expanded to manage the planning, specification, procurement, deployment and quality assurance of a new 40kW photovoltaic solar array.

Torque IP authored a full written specification, and the market was approached through a formal closed RFP process. Responses were evaluated and in consultation with the school, a service provider was engaged. Torque IP managed all project documentation, installation planning, health and safety and liaison between the Whangaparaoa College, the installation contractor and the Ministry of Education.
