Purpose
1. To provide an overview of the changes to the company’s work programme due to Covid-19 and the consequential impact on end of year reporting
as well as seek a one month extension for the delivery of the company’s Statement of Intent.
Recommendation
2. It is recommended that the Water Committee:
a) Notes the company’s refocus on critical front line services due to Covid-19, the central government requirement to only undertake
essential services during level 4 alert, and the resulting impact that stopped or scaled back work will have on performance reporting for
the 2019/2020 financial year.
b) Notes the company is developing its Statement of Intent for 2020-23 and alignment will need to occur with the councils’ 2020/2021
annual plans.
c) Notes a report has been forward to each shareholder council to seek approval to extend the deadline for delivery of Wellington Water’s
final Statement of Intent 2020-23 by 1 calendar month (to 31 July 2020) in accordance with the Local Government Act 2002.

Appendix 2: Impact of Covid-19 on Statement of Intent performance measures
Summary
2. Due to Covid-19, there has been a need to refocus Wellington Water’s resources on the front line to ensure continuity of service to the
community and people are kept safe. The Alert 4 lock down has meant we have been restricted in terms of the work we can do as an essential
services provider.
3. We have reviewed our work, including capex projects, in light of set criteria that has been shared with central government, and all non-critical
work has been stopped or scaled back to the bare minimum. As a result, we have reassessed the company’s short to medium term priorities and
our focus during Level 4 lock-down has been on:
Safeguarding the welfare of staff and suppliers
Duplicating the front line
Reconfirming the capex programmes of work
Revising the Long Term Plan programme of work
Completing the implementation of the performance management system, including Maximo.

Performance for 2019-20
4. The reprioritisation of work will have an impact on our year end performance reporting. We will still be able to report our performance against
our measures except for around five measures where we will not have the data available. For around 40 per cent of our measures, the end of year
result will be affected in some way due to stopping or scaling back work.
5. Given the unknowns around the Covid-19 restrictions, we are seeking a 1 calendar month extension from each shareholder council for completion
and delivery of the SOI to the councils from 30 June to 31 July 2020.
There has been a need to refocus the organisation
3. Due to Covid-19, and the Government’s imposed alert levels, we have refocused the organisation to reinforce our ability to continue to deliver
front line services and keep our people safe from the risks posed by the virus, while at the same time, ensuring that we deliver only the most
critical services as an essential services provider.
4. Our approach has been to redirect resources within the organisation and apply them to the most critical areas of front line services, including our
network and water and wastewater treatment plants, our customer operations group as well as other critical services within the business such as
payroll and accounts.
5. Our effort in the field is focused on keeping our treatment plants running and attending to jobs that pose the greatest risk to the continuity of
services to our communities. This approach applies to operations and maintenance work as well as renewals and upgrades. Our response to any
arising network emergencies will continue as usual. We will attend to urgent repairs that result in an outage to customers or sewage spillage
while holding back on routine jobs.

Performance for 2019-20
We have had to scale back our capex work to essential work only
6. In response to the Covid-19 Level 4 lock-down by the New Zealand Government, we were required to stop all non-essential work. To assist in
determining which capex projects were most essential, we prioritised the projects in our 2019/2020 construction programme and made decisions
on which projects were critical, and closed down all other sites.
7. We used a set of four criteria to prioritise the work. The criteria were selected to be consistent with the company’s Service Goals as well as the
central government’s goals. The criteria were:
a) Safe and Healthy Water
b) Public Health – in the Covid-19 environment this is ‘safe homes and streets’
c) Enhancing the Environment – for instance, safe disposal of wastewater into the environment
d) Any activity that if shut down would make the situation worse.
8. These criteria have been applied to the planned operational capex as well as our renewals and upgrades. Based on the criteria, we have grouped
the work into three categories:
a) Critical – will proceed as an essential service
b) Urgent – able to be stopped and to recommence as soon as practicable (subject to availability of staff and resources), and
c) Stop – not critical, not urgent. Will recommence once construction activity is permitted to resume as normal.

Performance for 2019-20
We have reassessed the company’s short to mid-term priorities
9. As a result of the current alert level and the requirements around providing essential services only, we reviewed the company’s most important
priorities in order to assess where work could be stopped or scaled back. Our aim was to free up resources to provide for duplication at the front
line as well as to ensure people’s safety.
10. The company’s short to mid-term priorities have been assessed as follows:
Company priority Comment
1 Safeguarding the welfare of staff and suppliers Our focus is to ensure the front line can work safely. This includes implementing social
distancing approaches, keeping vulnerable people away from the front line and
appropriate use of PPE.
We will ensure back-ups are in place for all key roles so that staff feel they can take sick
leave if they are feeling unwell.
We are making sure our people’s wellbeing is supported when working remotely.
We are also conscious of supporting our supply chain over this period and have
implemented a policy to continue paying our suppliers to advance cash flow.
2 Duplication to the front line We have had twice the critical resource required available on the front line (excluding
any personnel who are considered vulnerable). We continue to redeploy people within

with a focus on renewals
For 2020/21, our focus will be on completing the renewals which have been delayed due
to the impact of the Dixon St and Mt Albert events and the Covid-19 restrictions.
All councils will be reconsidering their annual plans in light of a reduction in revenue and
restricted ability to raise rates.
4 Long Term Plan Revised programme Covid-19 has changed the basis for our early signals long term plan advice and we will be
re-thinking our approach. We will continue to support councils in their thinking and have
completed a draft presentation to PCC and HCC for their discussions with central
government. There may be an opportunity to support broader economic stimulus
objectives.
5 Performance Management System & Maximo We will continue to strengthen the company’s performance management system to
ensure robust non-financial reporting. This will include implementing Maximo to
improve data capture for some of our time specific measures.

Performance for 2019-20
Redirecting resources and undertaking only essential work will have an impact on our
non-financial performance reporting
11. To respond to the current challenges we have had to either stop or scale back business as usual work for Quarter 4. This means we will not be
able to deliver on some of our promises set out in the Statement of Intent 2019-2022 (SOI).
12. By stopping work in some areas, we will not have the requisite data to be able to report against some of the SOI measures. For other measures,
we will have the data and be able to report but we will not reach the agreed target.
13. Our general approach is to report where we can and tell the whole story. We will undertake our customer satisfaction survey and stakeholder
surveys to enable our ability to report. These surveys were released in April and will take a couple of months to complete.
14. A list of our impacted SOI measures are set out in Attachment 2. A summary of the impact is as follows:
Number of SOI measures that are impacted due to stopping or scaling back work 17
Number of SOI measures that won’t be able to be reported against at year end due to 5
reprioritisation
Number of SOI measures that are not impacted by the reprioritisation of work 28
DEM15-6-1 - 20/428 - COVID-19 and the Impact on Wellington Water's Performance Reporting for 2019-2020 Page 26Attachment 1 Appendix 1 Re prioritisation of Wellington Water s Work Programme Due to Covid-10 and Impact on
Performance for 2019-20
15. While our non-financial performance will be affected by the Covid-19 situation, it’s unclear at this stage how this will unfold. At this stage, our
people are still well and particularly due to the duplication approach, we are confident in our ability to deliver on the critical activities.
16. The Department of Internal Affairs measures are not part of the 2019-2022 SOI and therefore will not be included in the annual report. However,
we will report against them as part of the quarterly reporting to councils. Approximately half of the measures are expected to be impacted by our
reprioritisation of work; however, there is an opportunity to mitigate this impact. For example, we are deprioritising any non-urgent repairs so our
response and resolution times are expected to deteriorate. However, as we duplicate our critical staffing levels, there is potential to increase
productivity while our people remain healthy and road traffic is at a minimum.
Looking ahead to resuming normal operations and the Statement of Intent
17. While at this stage we don’t know how long the Covid-19 restrictions will be in place, we are continuing to think about how we will resume
normal operations.
18. The stopping or scaling back of work that can’t be done under the Covid-19 category levels will mean the work is deferred to the 2020/2021
financial year. This will have an impact on the draft SOI which is currently being finalised.
19. There is a statutory duty for the completed SOI to be delivered to the councils by the beginning of the new financial year.
20. The Water Committee’s governance oversight responsibilities include “receiving, considering and providing recommendations to the parties to
the Shareholders and Partnership Agreement regarding Wellington Water Limited’s final statement of intent”.
DEM15-6-1 - 20/428 - COVID-19 and the Impact on Wellington Water's Performance Reporting for 2019-2020 Page 27Attachment 1 Appendix 1 Re prioritisation of Wellington Water s Work Programme Due to Covid-10 and Impact on
Performance for 2019-20
21. Due to recent amendments to the Local Government Act 2002 (clause 4, Schedule 8) the shareholding councils can agree to extend the SOI
deadlines by up to 1 calendar month. Given the unknowns around the Covid-19 restrictions, we are seeking from the shareholder councils a 1
month extension for completion of the SOI 2020-2023 from 30 June to 31 July 2020. This would ensure the SOI reflects the priorities set out in the
councils’ annual plans.
22. A report has been forwarded to the councils for their approval of the extension.
23. Audit NZ has also informed us they will be completing their annual report audits for local government within broader timeframes. In the
event this affects our ability to deliver our annual report within the statutory deadline, we will apply for an exemption from the Office of
the Auditor General.

To give the Wellington Water Committee an overview of the matters most important to the ongoing performance of the company. Attachments 2. There are no attachments. Covid-19 3. On the 24th of March 2020, New Zealand went into lockdown to prevent the community transmission of the Covid-19 virus. On the 14th of May 2020, New Zealand emerged from lockdown (and level 3) into level 2 which can be generally described as “getting back to some normality” with all the new health and safety requirements in place. 4. The company is an essential service provider. Under the threat of Covid-19 we paused the company, reassessed our priorities and put all our efforts into supporting our frontline people who were operating the treatment plants working on the networks or delivering critical projects. 5. To assure our council owners we could continue to provide all our services should there be community transmission, we duplicated the number of frontline workers undertaking critical activities and those backing them up in the office (virtual office). As it turned out the virus was kept in check, our staff remained healthy and we kept delivering the services. We also made some in-roads into the backlog of service requests we are carrying so we should see some improvement in response times when we report these both at the end of Q4 and for the entire year in our Annual Report. 6. While we only attended to critical projects over the lockdown period we released additional waves of projects as we stepped down through level 4 to level 2. All projects are now “live again”. We have estimated the holding costs of the lockdown on projects and reported these to council owners together with any carryovers caused by the 6-8 week hiatus. 7. We have started to re-occupy the IBM building but we are careful in doing so. We have all learnt a number of lessons from the lockdown including the benefits of new tools like “Zoom” and “Microsoft Teams” and the additional productivity some staff can get from working at home. We are determined to lock in some of these lessons into a more flexible way of working and trusting our people to deliver the work. 8. We are now focused on the planning for the 20/21 financial year and delivering to you our best advice for your 21/31 Long Term Plan (LTP). Overall we will lose about three months of the year to Covid-19 and we explain the impact this will have on our end of year performance reporting against the 2019/20 Statement of Intent (SOI).
