Description

The requirement is for a service to provide the complete repair and maintenance of a comprehensive range of cleaning equipment at approximately 105 sites throughout Shropshire and Walsall.

The successful tenderer will be required to undertake the initial inspection of any equipment within 24 hours notification of the fault being reported by the individual Council site, and will be required to provide a loan machine if any equipment is unable to be repaired on site, or requires replacement parts. Visits will be made as sites report machines need maintenance or repair, there is not currently a planned schedule of maintenance.

All/any replacement floor tools, hoses and pipes for vacuum cleaners are to be included in your tender.

This repair contract will cover all circumstances of damage being caused to equipment e.g. wear and tear, vandalism, misuse etc.

Maintenance contractors will be expected to make site visits during school hours and therefore it is a requirement of both Shropshire Council and Walsall Council that any work person entering a school should have successfully undergone a DBS check prior to starting work on a site.

The contract is for an initial period of 2 years commencing 1 September 2021, with the option to extend for a further 3 year period to 31 October 2026.
