Supply & In Service Support of Finning DAN Forklift Trucks

Tender description

Supply and In Service Support of Finning DAN Forklift Trucks Lot 1: The Air Commodities Team, part of the UK Ministry of Defence ("the Authority") intends to extend the existing In-Service Support contract ACCOMM/00047 - Supply of Finning Dan Forklift Trucks with Briggs Equipment Ltd for an additional 12 months, moving the contract expiry date from May 6th, 2021 to May 6th 2022. Briggs Equipment Ltd are the existing supplier for this requirement and the extension of ACCOMM/00047 will enable the Authority's current equipment, consisting of 22 x Finning Dan forklift Trucks (FLT) to continue to be supported within the original scope of the Contract. The extension has an estimated value of £0.132M.. Considering timescales and the complexity of the requirement, if the contract were not be extended in this instance, it is likely a gap in technical knowledge and capability would jeopardise the safe operation of the fleet of vehicles and would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs for the contracting Authority.
