Grounds Maintenance - Salisbury District Hospital

Tender description

Salisbury District Hospital covers a large site to the southwest of Salisbury. The site is surrounded by fields and bordered on one side by the Salisbury / Odstock road. Currently grounds maintenance is carried out by an in-house employee of the Estates Technical Services department, with other pieces of work being carried out by external contractors as required. The aim of this procurement is to appoint a single service company to carry out all grounds maintenance functions on the site. Bidders should also be aware that the Trust carries out grounds maintenance at a number of small satellite sites in Wiltshire. These sites are not listed in this procurement due to ongoing discussions; however bidders should have the capability to manage additional sites if required. Bidders should also be aware that this Tender contains a TUPE element with regard to the existing Trust employee. We have therefore split this procurement into two lots – Lot One, which is grounds maintenance including the TUPE element, and Lot Two, which is the same maintenance without the TUPE element should the employee decide on other options.
