In plain English

Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust wants a supplier to service and repair its catering equipment, laundry machines, dishwashers and refrigeration units. The work is split into three lots and covers both planned preventative servicing and call-out repairs when equipment breaks down. The estimated value is £550,000, but the notice states that the amount of work is not guaranteed.

What the buyer wants

• Planned preventative maintenance (scheduled servicing) on catering equipment, laundry machines and dishwashers, and refrigeration units • Reactive maintenance (repairs when equipment fails) across all three lots • Work priced on an activity basis, so the Trust pays for the work actually carried out

Lots

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice does not set out specific requirements, but because activity is not guaranteed and the work covers three separate types of equipment, a small business could be ruled out if it cannot show it can respond to repairs across all the sites and equipment involved at the scale of a £550,000 contract.
