Advance Notice: Upcoming Request for Information (RFI) for In-Person Citizenship Testing Services (Новая Зеландия - Тендер #72191154)

The Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) is providing advance notice to the market of a Request for Information (RFI) to understand the capability of potential suppliers to deliver in‑person citizenship testing services on behalf of the Department, and to gain insight into the costs and commercial models associated with delivering such services.

The testing services should include:

• Managing bookings and scheduling for citizenship applicants.
• Administering tests in a digital format.
• Support for DIA’s identity verification of the test taker.
• Ensuring safeguards are in place to prevent cheating or unauthorised assistance.
• Capability to transmit results securely to DIA via API‑based integration, using a DIA‑provided endpoint.

DIA is particularly interested in suppliers who can support in-person testing throughout New Zealand, operate year-round, and accommodate variable demand.

Suppliers will also be expected to demonstrate how their services can support applicants with diverse accessibility needs, including physical access requirements and other reasonable accommodations, while maintaining the integrity and assurance of the testing process.

This notice is issued for market information only and does not represent a commitment to procure, and participation in the RFI will not be a prerequisite for participation in any subsequent procurement process.

Further details, including submission instructions and key timelines will be provided when the RFI is officially released in very near future.

Suppliers interested in participating are encouraged to stay informed by monitoring this platform for updates.

The test was recently announced by the Minister of Internal Affairs. The announcement can be found on the Beehive website – www.beehive.govt.nz
