Notice Title

Weston College Group -- Tender for Cleaning and Security Services

Notice Description

The successful tenderer will be required to provide cleaning and security services to the whole of the Weston College Group. The Weston College Group is a recently established Multi Academy Trust (MAT) which includes currently the following properties where the successful contractor will be required to deliver a service and meet the requirements of the specification from the contract commencement. The various campuses within Weston College comprise of: -- Knightstone Road Campus; -- University Campus; -- South West Skills Campus; -- Law and Professional Services Academy; -- Weston Bay Hotel; -- Engineering; -- Hans Price is the Conference and Events Centre; -- Winter Gardens. Academies also within the Weston College Group currently include: -- North Somerset Enterprise Technology College; -- St Katherine's School; -- Bristol Futures Academy. The contract being tendered is for three years in duration from 1.8.2017 until 31.7.2020, with the option to extend for a further term and will be fixed price in nature, with the Contractor invoicing the Client for one-twelfth of the annual cost on a monthly basis. However, please note that the contract at St Katherine's School will commence on 1.1.2017 and be for 3 years and 7 months until 31.7.2020. The provision of security services is limited to a small number of campuses within the Weston College Group and will include a manned presence at various times of the day as detailed within the tender specification. It is believed there will be few campuses within the Weston College Group that require a security service moving into this contract period and the provision for these services will be included within the main specification for cleaning services. Tender submissions will only be considered for the supply of both services and this will not be split into the component parts of cleaning and security. The successful contractor must hold all the relevant statutory requirements at the point of tender submission to enable them to operate a security provision within the Weston College Group. The basis and rationale that the Client requires the successful contractor to operate to at all times, is being able to provide an environment that is fit for purpose and that the Contractor is proactive in the management of the contract, thus ensuring that all specifications are achieved on all sites and that the frequency of service delivered is as detailed within the tender specification. The tender project is seeking to appoint a Contractor whose initiative and innovation will be welcomed for the provision of services within the facilities for the Group. The high-quality service levels proposed, should maintain excellent standards throughout, resulting in a pleasant environment for students, staff and visitors. Further information is available within the PQQ Documentation. Additional information: Interest in the pre-qualification process should be expressed via email only to pqq@litmuspartnership.co.uk clearly stating within this email which contract / notice you are referring to.

The contracting authority reserves the right not to award any or part of the contract which is the subject of this OJEU notice and reserves the right to terminate the procurement process at any time.
