Tender description

This is an OJEU competitive procedure with negotiation The aim of this procurement is to enter into a contract with a single contractor to manage and carry out the M&E Building Services compliance related planned preventative maintenance (PPM) which is currently delivered by a number of contractors via separate contracts. Historically the University has engaged contractors to carry out maintenance on individual M&E disciplines an has managed each contract independently which placed a heavy burden on LU Facilities Management staff.The intention now is to bring all the M&E disciplines under 1 contract and to give the contractor responsibility to manage, plan, coordinate, supervise, report and communicate under the governance of Loughborough University. A large emphasis shall be placed on planning and communication which shall include planning service dates to ensure compliance with legislation, giving adequate notice to University Departments or Tenants before planned work commences and also keeping them informed as work progresses. The Contracting Authority reserves the right to award the contract on the basis of the initial tenders without conducting negotiations.
