In plain English

Caerphilly County Borough Council wants a contractor to carry out yearly safety checks, tests and certificates on the dust, fume and extraction equipment and the woodworking, metalworking and other machinery used in Design and Technology lessons in its schools. The work is split into three lots: extraction systems (LEV), machinery safety, or both, with an estimated total value of £60,000.

What the buyer wants

• Carry out annual thorough examinations, performance tests and visual inspections of local exhaust ventilation (LEV) systems, such as wood dust extraction, fume cupboards and spray booths, and issue detailed reports and test certificates. • Inspect, test and certify Design and Technology machinery, including saws, lathes, drills, sanders, grinders and kilns, and report any non-compliance against PUWER, COSHH, HSE guidance and BS 4163. • Price each lot separately, with an optional discount if you win both, and show that you can work across many school sites within the county borough.

Lots

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

A business without accredited LEV thorough examination competence, qualified competent persons and calibrated performance testing equipment would most likely be ruled out, as these are central to the statutory work.

How to bid

This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
