Congratulations to our CEO, John O'Hagan, who won the Public Sector Leadership Award at the 2026 New Zealand Leadership Awards.

The recognition reflects a leadership journey that has spanned some of the most significant chapters in Canterbury's recent history, from the earthquake response and recovery through to the work CID delivers today.

Throughout that journey, John has consistently championed collaboration, bringing together people, organisations and communities around a shared purpose. It's an approach that continues to shape how we work with our clients and partners across New Zealand.

While the award bears John's name, it also reflects the many people who have been part of that journey over the years.

Congratulations, John. A well-deserved recognition and a proud moment for everyone at CID. 👏

Under lights, in the early hours, one of the more striking sights in modular construction: a 44-tonne module rolling through Nelson and being craned into place at the hospital.

This is the final module for Nelson Hospital's new 28-bed interim inpatient unit. Over the past two weeks the seven modules have been transported to site one at a time and lifted into position before dawn, when the roads are quietest and disruption to the hospital is kept to a minimum.

Getting a module of this size safely from the factory to its foundations takes serious planning and a lot of skilled people working through the night. Real credit to Southbase, Fitzgerald Construction, and to Cotton Heavy Haulage, whose drivers moved each module through the streets of Nelson.

CID is helping Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora deliver the interim inpatient units programme, drawing on the experience of each build to keep improving how this kind of work is done.

🎥 Watch the final module make its way to site and into place.

The first two of seven modules for Nelson Hospital's new 28-bed interim inpatient unit are now down on their foundations, with the second craned into place in the early hours of this morning.

The first module was lifted onto the foundations at 4am on Tuesday after high winds pushed the plan back a day. When you're moving something around 44 tonnes and more than eight metres wide, patience and safety come first.

Once assembled, the seven modules will form a new 28-bed unit with a footprint of around 1,200 square metres, adding much-needed inpatient capacity while the wider Nelson Hospital Redevelopment continues.

CID is helping Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora deliver the Interim Inpatient Units, a nationwide effort to provide 140 additional hospital beds across five sites. Nelson follows Hawke's Bay, where construction of the unit is now complete, and the experience from each build is helping the next one run more smoothly.

Great to see this one taking shape, with thanks to Southbase Construction and Fitzgerald Construction Limited for their superb work getting the first module safely in place.

The remaining modules will arrive over the coming days.

CID is supporting Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora to bring pace, coordination and repeatability to the delivery of new hospital capacity across the country.

At Portacom New Zealand's factory in Wiri, the next Interim Inpatient Unit is being manufactured for Middlemore Hospital. Southbase Construction will bring together the 14 modules on site to form a new 56-metre-long, 28-bed ward block.

The video gives a behind-the-scenes look at the off-site manufacturing process that turns each module into a substantial part of the finished facility.

Working in a controlled factory environment helps improve quality and consistency, keeps progress moving regardless of the weather, and reduces the amount of construction work that needs to happen later on a live hospital campus.

Across the wider programme, CID is bringing procurement, delivery oversight and programme management together to support Health NZ’s delivery of five Interim Inpatient Units, providing 140 additional beds across the country.

It is a practical example of how standardised design, off-site manufacturing and coordinated delivery can help get critical health infrastructure where it is needed sooner.

Thanks to Southbase Construction, Portacom New Zealand and everyone involved in helping deliver this important programme.

CID is helping the Ministry for Primary Industries deliver a major investment in New Zealand’s biosecurity infrastructure.

At Mt Albert, the Plant Health and Environment Capability project is progressing strongly, with the main structure almost complete, façade panels now going up on the Workplace building and fit-out activity increasing across the site.

Once complete, PHEC will bring together modern laboratories, imported plant quarantine facilities and workplace areas into one purpose-built facility for MPI.

With close to 200 people working on site on any given day, this is a complex project that relies on careful planning, strong coordination and close collaboration across the whole delivery team.

CID’s role is to help bring those moving parts together, working with MPI, Southbase and the wider project team to keep momentum up, maintain quality and support delivery through each stage.

It is a great example of the kind of specialist infrastructure CID helps deliver for New Zealand, supporting critical public services and long-term national resilience.

Thanks to MPI, Southbase Construction, , Lab-works Architecture Ltd, Precon Project Management, Tonkin + Taylor, Rider Levett Bucknall RLB, Holmes Group, Jacobs, Inovo, OCTA, Pacific Commissioning & Coordination Limited, Marshall Day Acoustics Bently & Co and everyone involved in bringing PHEC through this important stage.

A look behind the scenes at one of New Zealand’s most complex live building upgrades.

Most people who come through Auckland District Court only see the public-facing parts of the building. But behind the scenes, and often at night, a major programme of work is underway to strengthen and modernise one of the country’s busiest courthouses.

Crown Infrastructure Delivery is proud to be supporting the of Justice on this multi-year remediation project, which is being carefully staged so court operations can continue during the day.

The scale is significant: around 35 courtrooms, roughly 28,000 square metres of space, and a building that needs to keep functioning while major strengthening and critical services upgrades are delivered floor by floor.

In this latest video update, CID's Senior Project Manager shows us the night works, planning and coordination needed to keep progress moving in a live courthouse environment.

It’s a challenging project, but also a great example of what good delivery looks like: strong client partnership, careful sequencing, practical problem-solving and a wider team working together around a critical public service.

A big thanks to the Ministry of Justice NZ, LT McGuinness Ltd, Pacific, WSP in New Zealand , White Associates Quantity Surveyors and the many subcontractors and consultants helping deliver this important work.

Great to see Parakiore Recreation and Sport Centre receive Recognition of Excellence in both the Civic, Health and Arts and Tourism and Leisure categories at the 2026 Property Council New Zealand Property Industry Awards. 🎉

In a strong field, that is a result the wider project team can feel really good about.

CID delivered Parakiore on behalf of the Crown, in partnership with Christchurch City Council, which now owns and operates the facility. It took a huge team effort to bring the project to life, and it is great to see that recognised.

What matters most, though, is what Parakiore is now doing for Christchurch and Canterbury. In its first six months, it welcomed more than 720,000 visits and has already hosted the Special Olympics New Zealand National Summer Games, Canterbury Rams and Tactix home games, National League Water Polo, National League Futsal and South Island Artistic Swimming.

Thanks and congratulations to Christchurch City Council , CPB Contractors , AECOM, Aurecon , Warren and Mahoney, Peddle Thorp, MJMA, Boffa Miskell, Powell Fenwick, and the many others who helped make it happen. Tactix photo credit -

The first module lift at Hawke’s Bay Fallen Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital marked a major step in bringing the Interim Inpatient Unit from factory floor to site.

Built off site, delivered overnight and installed in hours, it’s a different way of building that’s helping bring capacity online faster.

CID is supporting Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora to deliver this programme, helping coordinate delivery and keep things moving safely and at pace as it rolls out across the country.

A 24-tonne hospital module is lifted into place under floodlights at Hawke’s Bay Fallen Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital, marking the first step in bringing new inpatient capacity on site.

CID is supporting Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora to deliver the Interim Inpatient Units as part of a nationwide effort to bring more hospital capacity online, and this week you can start to see that taking shape.

The first module was craned into position in the early hours of Monday morning, with three more following on Monday night into Tuesday.

Each module is a substantial piece of the build, around 18 metres long and 4 metres wide. They travelled more than 400 kilometres from South Auckland to Hastings before being carefully lifted into place.

These four modules are the first of 14 that will come together to form the completed ward, part of a programme delivering five new inpatient units and 140 additional beds across the country.

It’s modular construction in action. While site works have been underway at Hawke’s Bay Hospital, the building itself has been constructed off site in parallel, allowing high quality clinical space to be brought together faster and with less disruption to hospital operations.

With the first modules now in place, the focus shifts to the next deliveries and assembling the full facility on site as the project gathers pace.

Early start at@portacom_nz ’s Wiri factory, where CID and Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora hosted Minister of Health Simeon Brown MP for a walkthrough of the Government's fast-tracked hospital wards programme.

It’s an impressive operation, with around 60 people on the floor during the visit and production running 24/7 across three shifts. The Hawke’s Bay 28 bed ward is now well advanced, made up of 14 modules that move through services installation and internal fit out before final enclosure.

CID is supporting Health New Zealand with procurement, contract management, programme oversight, assurance and reporting, working alongsideSouthbase Construction and Portacom to keep delivery moving.

The wider programme will deliver five standardised 28 bed units across Hawke’s Bay, Nelson, Middlemore, Waikato and Wellington, adding 140 beds in total.
