    Building Maintenance Management Future Opportunity - The primary purpose of the contract is to provide a mechanism for carrying out building fabric maintenance work, including reactive repairs and planned small works or projects, such as alterations or renovations. It will also include reactive maintenance, planned small works and associated services that may be required to mechanical and electrical plant and equipment, arising out of or associated with any building fabric maintenance work. It is envisaged that the contract will include an agreed level of on-site managerial/supervisory resources to co-ordinate labour, materials, plant and other equipment, sub-contractors and any other specialists to achieve the highest possible workmanship standards, shortest possible work completion times and transparent financial management to achieve value for money principles. It is also anticipated that the supplier will need to provide a Helpdesk facility in order to liaise effectively with the Estates Helpdesk and provide performance management, analysis and reporting capabilities throughout the duration of the contract. The University is seeking a high level of regular communication about the progress of each job undertaken to ensure that Estates and all stakeholders are kept advised of progress at all stages of the work cycle from initial discussion to work completion. Suppliers should be aware that the majority of all orders issued are of low financial value, but these tend to account for only a small proportion overall of the total spend on building maintenance work. The estimated total contract value is based on spend over a 5 year period.

It will also include reactive maintenance, planned small works and associated services that may be required to mechanical and electrical plant and equipment, arising out of or associated with any building fabric maintenance work. It is envisaged that the contract will include an agreed level of on-site managerial/supervisory resources to co-ordinate labour, materials, plant and other equipment, sub-contractors and any other specialists to achieve the highest possible workmanship standards, shortest possible work completion times and transparent financial management to achieve value for money principles. It is also anticipated that the supplier will need to provide a Helpdesk facility in order to liaise effectively with the Estates Helpdesk and provide performance management, analysis and reporting capabilities throughout the duration of the contract. The University is seeking a high level of regular communication about the progress of each job undertaken to ensure that Estates and all stakeholders are kept advised of progress at all stages of the work cycle from initial discussion to work completion. Suppliers should be aware that the majority of all orders issued are of low financial value, but these tend to account for only a small proportion overall of the total spend on building maintenance work. The estimated total contract value is based on spend over a 5 year period.",
