Hybrid performance based road management and maintenance contracts were introduced in the North Canterbury State Highway Network in October 1999. This concept introduces outcome-based contracts for both the Consultant and Contractor. These are performance based 5-year lump sum contracts, which require the Consultant, Contractor, and the road controlling authority form a network team, responsible for network control and road maintenance activities on the state highway. This discussion paper explains the hybrid pavement management strategy and describes methods to optimise maintenance performance delivery.
