e-ITT for Cleaning and Security Services at Fareham Shopping Centre PO16 0PQ

Fareham Borough Council (the Council) requires a contractor to provide security and cleaning services in respect of Fareham Shopping Centre. Fareham Shopping Centre complex opened in 1976 and is Fareham's largest covered shopping centre. It occupies an area of approximately 475,000 sq.ft. of retail floor. It encompasses a fully covered shopping centre all on one level and a multi-story car park with associated service areas, roads, and landscaped areas. Fareham Shopping Centre occupies an area on the ground level of the main trading area with a communal seating area, the cleaning and maintenance of which is the responsibility of the Client. The services to be provided under the contract will include external and back of house areas, which are restricted to authorised staff and comprise all service areas, staff areas, non-tenanted space, service corridors, pavements, walkways, service roads, paths and refuse and other communal areas at first floor level and landscaped areas, where covered by the building structure or any canopy fitted thereto. The main Shopping Centre includes all internal areas accessible to members of the public including toilets, lifts etc. except tenant's shop units. Fareham Shopping Centre Multistorey Car Park comprises an adjoining 3-level car park with 207 spaces but parking machines/enforcement are managed by Fareham Borough Council's Car Parking Team. The services to be provided under the contract will include 2 passenger lifts and staircases. The north-south walkway through Fareham Shopping Centre forms an important link between the town's live entertainment venue (Fareham Live) and other restaurants, parking and leisure venues. This link is likely to be kept open on an increasing frequency late into the evening after the main shopping facilities have closed and the contractor will be required to adapt staffing over time to cater for these needs. The Council will be the Client, but the contractor will report to the Centre Manager, who is employed by Munroe K Asset Management (the Council's Managing Agent).
