Notice Title
Provision of Air conditioning Servicing and Maintenance
Notice Description
NCC are seeking a provider who can carry out the planned preventative maintenance (PPM), inspection, and servicing of all air conditioning systems, including split systems, multi-split, VRF/VRV systems, and packaged or ducted AC units installed across the Council's property portfolio. Please note that the values in this notice are an indication for the full 5 year term of the contract including extension Options. Please note that Norfolk County Council has joined the government's Devolution Priority Programme. This process has the potential to lead to the establishment of a county combined authority for Norfolk and Suffolk, with strategic powers, headed by an elected mayor. A Government has also invited participation by Norfolk in Local Government Review. This process has the potential to lead to unitary local government in Norfolk, being either one unitary or more than one. One of these changes could happen without the other.

This may also result in modifications to the contract and or pricing schedules that may be required when the asset information becomes known. 11 Known Risk - NCC from time to time acquire and or dispose of properties which are no longer needed by services. New acquisitions will be added to contracts via a formal change control and will be subject to rates as part of this tender, while any properties which are removed will also be subject to formal change control.
