The brief

The University of Chester was seeking tenders through the 2 Stage Restricted Tender Procedure under The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and The Public Procurement (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 for the Provision of Maintenance Services for Fire Alarm Systems and Fire Extinguishers.

The University of Chester needed to ensure it is compliant with legislation and most importantly had assurance on the continual and reliable operation of its equipment, for the protection of its staff, students, tenants and other personnel.

Tenderers should note that not all systems / items of equipment would need a Proactive Planned Maintenance Service Visit immediately at the start of the contract, so it may be some months before works would commence.

A schedule of works was set out in the documents: o Document 2.2 - Pricing Schedule, Asset Register & SOR - LOT 1 - Fire Alarm o Document 2.3 - Pricing Schedule, Asset Register & SOR - LOT 2 - Fire Extinguishers The range of fire systems / items of equipment was divided into two lots and tenderers were invited to bid for one or both lots.
