Consulting services for water-supply and waste consultancy

Tender description

Property and Risk management (the client) is aiming to select a suitable provider to undertake the survey and review of existing risk assessments for water hygiene and prevention of scalding in approximately 750 properties over a 4 year period. These properties will include nurseries, schools, day care centres, residential care homes, offices, libraries and client agents (i.e. Police, Fire Authorities, etc.) amongst others. All of the properties are located in Staffordshire, England. An OJEU advert notice has also been placed for a water survey and risk testing provision. Applicants should be aware that, it is Staffordshire County Councils intention to have 2 different economic operators for these contracts e.g. removing any conflict of interest, therefore, they will not be awarded both to the same contractor. The Production of risk assessment/RSM will be separated from the maintenance/monitoring contract thereby adhering to ‘Best Practise’ principles. However, as a condition of the contract, the economic operator appointed to undertake the risk assessments and provide RSM's should be required to monitor any changes in guidance or legislation and update the RSM's as required, which will be addressed in the full tender specification. Contractors bidding for both will be requested to show preference at the invitation to tender stage.
