Overview
From Paper to Practice
The move from CoPTTM to NZGTTM represents a fundamentalshift in how the sector is expected to think about risk. Where the old model rewarded compliance with prescribed rules, the new one asks people at every level of the chain to understand the risks of their work and manage them as conditions change.
The Assurance workstream exists to help the sector make that shift with confidence. This means developing practical frameworks and tools that support businesses to reflect honestly on how work is actually happening, not just how it is planned. It means building risk awareness at the front line, strengthening the contracting chain's ability to have informed conversations about safety, and supporting organisations to move from paper compliance toward genuine capability and understanding of risk.
The workstream takes a learning-focused view of assurance.Rather than creating another layer of audit or compliance burden, the focus is on helping suppliers, contractors and clients understand where their current practice stands and what good looks like under the new framework. Assurance that improves over time, grounded in real work and honest reflection, is what drives lasting change.
The Assurance workstream is led by Monika Wakeman (NZTA)and Nick Miskelly (Chorus, NZUAG).
