This contract will replace a time-expired term contract of a similar nature.The intention is to achieve service efficiencies through the appointment of a single service provider for the majority of mechanical and electrical maintenance work. It is a key requirement that the successful contractor will work closely and constructively with the Council to achieve demonstrable improvements in service efficiency and value for money throughout the life of the contract. As part of these close working arrangements, the successful contractor will be required to use the Council’s property management database, Technology Forge, for the day-to-day management of planned maintenance and responsive repairs.Key Performance Indicators will be agreed at the outset of the contract, based on the objectives set out above. These will be used to measure performance throughout the contract term, and to assess whether or not the contract is to be extended.
