## Summary

The Weston College Group is inviting tenders for Planned Preventative and Reactive Maintenance Services, covering multiple campuses in Weston-super-Mare, England. This service contract is expected to commence on 1st June 2020 and last for an initial period of three years, with the possibility of a two-year extension. The total contract value is approximately £300,000 per annum, and interested suppliers must submit their Selection Questionnaire by 15th November 2019, 12:00 onwards. The procurement process is classified as selective under the restricted procedure, making it crucial for bidders to prepare competitive proposals well in advance of the deadline.

This tender represents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the maintenance and facilities management sector, particularly those specialising in electrical, mechanical, and building fabric services. Companies that can demonstrate strong experience in integrated maintenance arrangements and effective contract supervision will be well-positioned to compete. The successful supplier will also need to be capable of responding swiftly to both planned and unplanned service needs, ensuring that the college can maintain its educational operations seamlessly throughout the contract period.

## Notice

The successful supplier will be required to provide planned preventative and reactive maintenance services (mechanical, electrical and building fabric) for Weston College Group. The contract being tendered is for an initial period of 3 years from 1.6.2020 until 31.5.2023, with the opportunity to extend for a further period of 2 years at the discretion of the College governing body. The value is in the region of 300 000 GBP per annum. The College has multiple campuses and the scope of this contract initially includes: - Knightstone Campus, Knightstone Road, Weston-super-Mare, BS23 2AL, - Conference and Events Centre, Knightstone Road, Weston-super-Mare, BS23 2AL, - The Workshop, South Terrace, Weston-super-Mare, BS23 2AT, - Law and Professional Services Academy, (Old Arosfa Hotel), Lower Church Road, Weston-Super-Mare, BS23 2AQ, - Winter Gardens, UCW and IEI, South Parade, Weston-super-Mare, BS23 1AJ, - Lauriston Hotel, 6-12 Knightstone Road, Weston-Super-Mare, BS23 2AN, - Weston Bay, 2 Clevedon Road, Weston-super-Mare, BS23 1DG, - Loxton Campus, Loxton Road, Weston-super-Mare, BS23 4QU, - Health and Active Living Centre, Loxton Road, Weston-super-Mare, BS23 4QU, - South West Skills Campus, 393 Locking Road, Weston-super-Mare, BS22 8NL (incorporates five buildings housing engineering, construction, motor vehicles, apprenticeships, external contracts, IT and computing), - Construction Training Centre, Locking Head Drove, Weston-super-Mare, BS23 7NA, - Animal Management Education Centre (opening January 2020), Puxton Park, Cowslip Lane, Hewish, BS24 6AH. Due to the nature of the College building programme, the maintenance arrangements need to be integrated, enabling the College to continue to undertake its core business. It should be borne in mind that all equipment fitted during any new building work will be under warranty, covered and maintained by the installing contractor for the first year. As part of the contract submission the College also requires the supplier to supply a competitive agreed day work rate for both normal and out of hours working. The contract is fixed price and any variations to the contract that are requested by the client should be invoiced at an agreed rate and should be calculated on an hourly rate per employee, as required to carry out the variation to the satisfaction of the contract supervising officer. Whilst the monthly charge will represent the fixed cost, a reconciliation will take place monthly to reconcile the actual tasks worked within the contract. If the tasks worked are less than those invoiced a credit will be required by the College. The College requires that the tendered amount of tasks are worked at all times and the successful supplier is expected to have a system in place to cover for both planned and unplanned leave. Note: Bidders should ensure that adequate contract supervision is allowed for within their proposals. Further information is provided in the SQ document. Additional information: Interest in the selection process should be expressed via email only to pqq@litmuspartnership.co.uk clearly stating within this email which contract / notice you are referring to. Please also provide, as a minimum, a contact name, full company postal address and telephone number.
