Building and facilities management services

Tender description

3 Year Contract Project briefing Oxford Brookes University has a satellite campus in Swindon and this provides part of our Faculty of Health and Life Science, teaching health related courses. The curriculum comprises Adult Nursing, Operating Department Practice (ODP) and a range of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) courses. The Faculty currently operates from The Ferndale Campus and is based in a Victorian building on Ferndale Road, Swindon. Owing to course growth it is planned to move from the current premises to larger premises in August 2016. Delta 900 on the Delta Business Park in Swindon, SN5 7XQ is the chosen location and the University is reviewing the best way to deliver support services to this site. Currently services are provided by a number of departments within Estates and Facilities Management (EFM) e.g., Catering, Facilities, Estates and we are looking to bring these services together into a ‘bundled’ contract. The services that will be required are as follows: — Management; — Cleaning and Waste; — Pest Control; — Portering; — Signage; — Security; — Maintenance — PPM and Reactive; — Catering; — Car Parking. The above list is not exhaustive but gives an indication of the range of services required. It is anticipated that where the University existing and critical contracts in place (e.g. lift maintenance) these will continue. It is planned that the on-site managing presence provided by the supply partner will monitor the output and performance of these contracts and liaise with building users and service departments. By bundling these services under 1 supplier the University is aiming to achieve — Clarity regarded service provision so that Faculty/Finance/Service Providers/Contractors are all clear on expectations; — Value for money for University; — Service levels consistent with rest of University; — Reduction in University management time in travelling to site. It is important that standards at this campus are maintained at a level equal to those on our main Oxford campuses.
