We are currently seeking tenders for suitable experienced contractors for the provision of electrical reactive maintenance and repairs at various buildings within the Authority.

The successful contractor will be required to provide a 30 minute site response for emergency calls to properties within the Barrow-in-Furness area. Response times for urgent repairs will be 24 hours and routine repairs 48 hours, depending on the nature of Electrical issue and Access arrangements. The service is required during office hours only. Out of hours cover is provided by another provider.

The sites included are owned by Barrow Borough Council and include commercial office buildings, public buildings such as our Leisure Centre, Museum, Market, Community Centres and Theatre. Some sites also include external work such as our parks, play areas, and cemeteries.

The contract will be for an initial 2 year period, with an option to negotiate for a further 2 years, by mutual agreement. The contract figure is expected is based on the average annual spend of 50 000 GBP per annum, but we are unable to guarantee this figure will be maintained throughout the life of the contract due to possible budgetary constraints and the reactive nature of this work.
