Grounds maintenance services

Tender description

The successful tenderer will be required to provide grounds maintenance services at Bishop Vesey's Grammar School in Sutton Coldfield. The contract being tendered is for three years, from 1.11.2016 until 31.10.2019. The contract will be fixed price in nature, with the Contractor invoicing the Client for one-twelfth of the annual cost on a monthly basis. Whilst the monthly charge will represent one-twelfth of the contract cost, reconciliation will take place annually to reconcile the achievement of input hours and delivery of the specification of the contract. The Client requires that the tendered specification is undertaken at all times and the successful contractor is expected to have a system in place to cover for both planned and unplanned absence of the staff dedicated to the contract and also the resource to meet the season needs of the contract. It is also the objective of this tender for the successful contractor to have in place a management support structure, site supervision and training plan that ensures that all Client locations are kept to standard at all times and that the required grounds maintenance specification is achieved consistently.
