The open procedure approach was used, allowing all qualified parties to tender until the deadline.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specializing in maintenance services related to catering and laundry equipment. Enterprises focusing on rapid repair services and compliance with statutory regulations for gas safety, health and safety, and related fields will be particularly well-positioned to leverage this contract for growth. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have been identified as suitable candidates for this project, supporting the council's ongoing asset consolidation and maintenance demands, which necessitate swift responses to emergency equipment breakdowns. ## Notice Westmorland and Furness Council has a varied portfolio of buildings including 9 Care Homes and 5 Day Centres which contain a range of catering and laundry equipment which require compliant inspection and servicing and as required, breakdown maintenance and replacement. In responding to this opportunity, Contractors confirm that they can comply with the relevant statutes and regulations current at the time of the selection process including as relevant, Gas Safety, Health & Safety, Control of Asbestos, COSHH, Electricity at Work, Manual Handling and Personal Protective Equipment. Overall, this Contract shall achieve the delivery of statutory compliant, working equipment in Council buildings. A key deliverable will be a rapid response to emergency repairs where it is critical to the catering service operation. Achievement of the aims will generally be measured by the Contractors performance as set out in the ITT and Specification.
