Current status / Background

These have been regularly maintained over the five years and we wish to procure a maintenance agreement for a further five years with an option to extend by a further two years

The requirement

To provide a 5 year maintenance programme to our FT2 and FT3 cremators, associated mercury abatement equipment, compressor and charging bier at the crematorium. The successful contractor must be able to provide emergency callout using skilled personnel used to working on FT equipment, have FT approved spares and be able to provide on-line diagnosis and rectification via broadband. They must be able to carry out emission testing certification and dispose appropriately of contaminated carbon from the abatement equipment as well as supplying new.

Contract Value

The estimated total value of this contract is £364,000 over the maximum 84 months term of the contract. This is based on £52,000 per annum. However, the Council is confident the bids received will be lower than the estimated value.
