Invitation to tender for alarm maintenance services

Yarlington is wishing to set up a long term agreement for the service, maintenance and repairs of all alarm monitoring equipment and support equipment for our vulnerable residents living in our properties. The equipment currently in place is a hardwired PABX system – warden call.

Yarlington is looking for a contractor that will:

Acquaint themselves with the sites concerned, the Conditions of this Contract, the Specification and all accompanying information Complying with an agreed programme of works

Complying with our site procedures

Provide all tools and equipment necessary to carry out the works

Ensure the sites are left clear and tidy during the works and after completion which must include the safe disposal of any waste from site.

In addition to the service, maintenance and support we also require a contractor that is able to carry out routine jobs that will fall outside the remit of this contract, therefore, require pricing for a small list of works that will be required during the life of the contract which is attached at Appendix 3.

It is anticipated that the Contract will be awarded by 16 December 2016 with a start date of 1 April 2017.

It is the intention of Yarlington Housing Group Ltd to award this contract for an initial period of three years which will commence 1 April 2017 and end 31 March 2020. There is an option to extend the contract term for a further two years beyond this subject to satisfactory reviews and performance leading to a maximum contract term of 5 years which will end 31 March 2022 (3 + 2 Contract term). It is important to note that flexibility will be required with the administration and management of the Contract as new properties are added or properties omitted from the schedule.
