In plain English
The University of Bradford wants to appoint contractors to maintain its buildings across its whole estate, covering both planned (scheduled) and reactive (repair when something breaks) work. The estimated total value is £23,107,953, split into three lots: mechanical services, electrical services, and building fabric and grounds.
What the buyer wants
• Planned preventative and reactive maintenance of mechanical building systems and electrical systems across the University's estate, including attending faults and emergencies. • Remedial works and support for statutory compliance and the safe, effective operation of University buildings. • Internal and external building fabric repairs, general maintenance and grounds services, with emergency response, for one or more of the three lots.
Lots
- Mechanical
- Electrical
- Building Fabric & Grounds
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice does not state any minimum turnover, certifications or insurance levels, but it asks for suitably qualified and experienced contractors across a £23 million estate-wide contract run as a two-stage competitive process, which would most likely rule out a small business unless it bids for a single lot and can show relevant track record.
