## Summary

The Ipswich Borough Council has awarded a contract titled "Gas Servicing Maintenance & Repair" valued at £5,100,000, which pertains to repair and maintenance services of central heating systems. This contract, active from 1st October 2019 to 30th September 2025, specifically focuses on domestic gas servicing, repairs, and maintenance, ensuring compliance with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998. The contract is part of the open procurement method and provides a significant service to approximately 7,500 rented properties, including flats, houses, and sheltered housing schemes in Suffolk.

This tender presents considerable opportunities for businesses specialising in gas servicing and maintenance, particularly those that can demonstrate experience in complying with safety regulations and delivering high-quality service. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that are qualified and able to operate with emergency response capabilities would be well-positioned to compete for similar contracts. The engagement with a significant contracting authority like Ipswich Borough Council also allows for potential growth through long-term contracts and local service provision.

## Notice

A full works programme for carrying out and providing a Landlords Safety Record as per Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 must be adhered for the duration of the contract; this scope will cover domestic and commercial installations. Maintenance and repairs upon gas installations are to be carried out as required in order to ensure that the gas installations are fully operational and operating in a safe working manner. All works carried out as an emergency will be in accordance with the lump sum or the prices detailed in the schedule of rates, at no extra charge to the Council.

Our properties include a mix of bungalows, flats, houses, homeless units and 15 sheltered housing schemes. IBC also manages sheltered schemes and various other properties. The Council is committed to providing a high quality service with an active involvement from our tenants in the development, delivery, and review of the services. We have obtained several awards for our service. An important element of our repairing obligation is the servicing and maintenance of the gas appliances, systems, and supply. It is the landlord's responsibility to ensure the safety of its tenants; the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 specifically deal with the duties of the landlord to ensure that gas appliances, fittings, and flues provided for tenants use are safe. This contract is intended to provide our tenants with a high quality gas servicing and maintenance service offering both peace of mind and good value. The Council continually provides an excellent service to our tenants by working closely and professionally with our gas contractors. Data and contract information is shared using a 'shared web based portal'. A vital part of the contract involves the legal requirement of the contractor to produce a valid gas Landlord Safety Record, which is currently stored and recorded electronically.

Gas central heating and hot water systems are maintained and serviced as required, each attendance is recorded and a job sheet produced.
