The contract will cover on-demand vehicle servicing and maintenance, with a contract value ranging from £100k to £150k per year. Due to local staff shortages, spending has increased to around £175k per year. The opportunity falls under repair and maintenance services of trucks, with a contract value of £800,000. The tender deadline is 12th July 2024, and the contract period will start on 1st December 2024 and end on 30th November 2027. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses providing repair and maintenance services for vehicles and related equipment to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly suited for this opportunity. The procurement method is an open procedure above the threshold, making it accessible to a wide range of businesses. The location of the contract is in South East, United Kingdom, and businesses in the fleet management and vehicle repair industry are encouraged to bid for this contract. ## Notice East Sussex Fire Authority (ESFA) on behalf of East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service is seeking to award a contract for the provision of Engineering Services to support its Engineering Department. This call-off contract will cover the requirement for on demand vehicle servicing and maintenance, and ad-hoc emergency repairs to vehicles or equipment - to provide additional support to our internal resources. This will be predominantly our LGV fleet but may be expanded to cover our light fleet (vans and cars) if the successful supplier has capacity and wishes to do so. Additional information: Contract value will be dependent on both need and the length of the contract - particularly whether any extension is invoked. Generally we spend between PS100k and PS150 per year for these support services but due to local staff shortages, we have called on this service more in the last two year and spend has been about PS175k per year.
