The Christchurch Integrated Government Accommodation (CIGA) project will see approximately 1700 government employees from up to 20 government agencies return to the Christchurch CBD in four new purpose build tenancies.

 

With Statistics New Zealand as lead agency this particular fit-out will be the first to be completed. This co-location will also be home to the New Zealand Transport Agency, Internal Affairs, Te Puni Kōkiri, the Ministry of Pacific Island Affairs, the Human Rights Commission, Creative New Zealand and the Energy Efficiency and Conversation Authority.

 

400 staff will be accommodated across 3 floors and 6,000m2 of modern flexible office space offering a range of collaborative work areas, quiet spaces, and meeting rooms. The largest of the 3 floors will incorporate a shared public reception and large staff hub designed to encourage the interaction of staff from different agencies and thereby maximise the potential benefits of collocation.
