Provision of Servicing and Maintenance of the Laundry Production Equipment at Nottingham City Hospital

The Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust (the "Client") is issuing this invitation to tender ("ITT") in connection with the competitive procurement of Servicing and Maintenance of the Laundry Production Equipment at Nottingham City Hospital (The service). To support the day to day operation of the Client's Laundry Production Equipment, a Contractor is required to carry out both planned and ad-hoc (e.g. reactive) engineering servicing and maintenance at the Nottingham City Hospital. The objective is to ensure the Laundry Production Equipment is supported by qualified engineers and subsequently fit for the purpose of enabling the Client's staff to operate the equipment safely, efficiently and reliably. The Contractor is expected to deliver full engineering services to cover planned preventive and reactive maintenance. Servicing the laundry equipment regularly ensures wash results, optimizes the client's chemical usage, reduces the likelihood of costly breakdown and increases the life of the machinery and equipment, mitigating having to buy a new machine due to lack of maintenance. The Contractor will be required to utilize the Client's digital planned preventative maintenance (PPM) system to provide the service. The service period is 24 months (The Initial Term), with a potential three one-year extensions, meaning the service period may be extended to a maximum of 60 months. Extensions shall be granted on the basis of good performance.
