CONCLUSION It is recommended that the Committee receives the information. RECOMMENDATION(S) That the Risk & Assurance Committee: 1. Receives the proposed audit fees letter to the Mayor, David Trewavas from Leon Pieters dated 25 May 2021; and 2. Receives the Audit Proposal dated 25 May 2021 for the year ending 30 June 2021. ATTACHMENTS 1. Proposed Audit Fees for the 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2022 2. Audit Proposal - 30 June 2021 Item 4.1 Page 4 Risk & Assurance Committee Meeting Agenda 13 July 2021 4.2 PROJECT QUANTUM STATUS REPORT Author: Pete Bradshaw, Project Manager Authorised by: John Ridd, General Manager Policy and Strategy PURPOSE To receive an update on the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) replacement project (Project Quantum) and Governance Structure. DISCUSSION There are no decisions being sought at this stage, the following update is provided for your information. The project continues to move forward during a period of significant organisational change within TDC. The following is a summary of key achievements since the last report: • The deployment of the finance module has been deferred to October in order to mitigate risks to BAU operations. The project team continue to progress with go-live preparation tasks (e.g. promotion of configuration to production, static data migration and validation, business readiness preparation, etc.) which will simplify live cutover in October. • The ECM (document management) stream is close to doing a first trial data migration which is result of 6 months mapping data across to the new structure. • The Revenue stream is about to begin User Acceptance testing of the new District Valuation Roll provider (Valor) integration. • Business System Analysts are working on configuration of reports, analytics and business process automation. • Some changes to the project’s management structure have taken place with Pete Bradshaw joining the team in a part time Programme Management capacity with responsibility for overall programme delivery. Pete has solid experience working on ERP implementations and his involvement will allow Debbie Hodgson (who will remain actively involved in the project in a full-time capacity) to focus purely on delivery of the Business Solutions elements of the project. Debbie’s continued involvement ensures a level of stability and mitigates the risk of transition. Resourcing continues to be a challenge for the project with recent resignations and the staff re-organisation both impacting the project (see risks below). These challenges are actively being worked through with every effort to minimize impact on project time, cost and quality constraints. Currently, the budget is 72% committed and its estimated we are approximately 70% through the work. Limited project contingency remaining may restrict options to respond to unanticipated scenarios and mitigate associated risks. Item 4.2 Page 5 Risk & Assurance Committee Meeting Agenda 13 July 2021 Below is a summary of the known risks: Risk Theme High, Risk Mitigation Med, Low Time High Recruit replacement BA(s) – at an advanced stage. The current P&R timeline is at risk due to Consider re-allocation of experienced BA to (more the recent resignation of the P&R Business complex) P&R workstream, and assign new BA(s) to Analyst. This is a significant loss of IP and other (more straightforward) workstreams whilst recruitment for a replacement is in Look at options to reduce reliance on key individuals progress it is expected that it will take some time to bring the new resource up to speed. Review project delivery timeline and adjust where necessary. Organisational Change Management High Change planning continues with terms of reference developed to put higher focus on training. This type and scale of Organisational Change Management is new to Taupō Development of internal skills and ownership of District Council and this may impact user change and improvement – leader led approach adoption of the solution and the ability to Training resource secured internally to focus on realise the project benefits creation and delivery of training for Core organisational wide modules.

Options to mitigate this risk for the finance module are being explored but a longer-term resource solution will be required for future modules.

    Taupō District Council Infrastructure Strategy 2021-51 Taupō District Council Infrastructure Strategy 2021-51 1. PURPOSE The purpose of this Infrastructure Strategy to identify issues that will face Council’s infrastructure over the next 30 years, and to identify the options available for addressing the issues. 2. INTRODUCTION Infrastructure is essential to connect people and place. In Aotearoa, the provision of services and facilities that meet the current and future needs of communities falls under the responsibilities of district councils. Effective infrastructure planning is critical to ensure economic prosperity and to enable populations to access fundamental services and facilities of everyday living. However, building and maintaining infrastructure is expensive and requires careful and considered management to ensure the current and future needs of communities are provided for. Strategic and integrated planning is required to review, anticipate and adapt to changing scenarios There are six themes that will influence the decisions we make about maintaining and managing our infrastructure over the next 30 years. These themes are: • Population and demographic change • Protecting the health of our communities • Protecting the health of our environment • Maintaining and renewing our infrastructure • The resilience of our infrastructure • Providing for the Māori world view By understanding these themes mentioned above, the strategy will identify the issues facing our infrastructure and then discuss the options available for responding

  • Project Update 2: Taupō Sports Fishery Review
    Exploring Future Opportunities for the Taupō Fishery Project Update #2 The Taupō Sports Fishery Review is now progressing through the final stages of the public consultation and engagement stage. To date the Project Team has met with the following groups: • Lake Rotoaira Forest Trust • Taupō District Council • Key Department staff, including Fisheries Staff • Fish and Game • Business, marketing and events representatives • Local fishing guides (Turangi and Taupō, Boat and River ) Members of the working team have also talked to a wide number of individuals (fishing guides, business owners, fishers etc) who have contacted us and provided some useful insights and information based on their knowledge and experience in the Taupō Fishery and wider. Survey The online survey has also closed with 742 responses received, a summary report is attached. The responses are currently being assessed by APR Experts (who are preparing the economic assessment of the fishery) and Michael in National Office (to look at social responses, comments and trends). The team is very pleased with this response and is far in excess of what was anticipated. Economic Assessment The 1983 economic assessment of the Taupō Fishery is currently being revised by APR Consultants, who undertook the initial report. This assessment will provide the value of the fishery to the Taupō District as well as a wider range of information on use and associated spending and user trends. Public Workshops Two public workshops have been scheduled next week in Turangi and Taupō. The intent of the workshops is to provide participants with a brief update on the progress of the project and test some of the findings of the survey and wider consultation to date.
