The Authority has a major issue with Vehicles Off Road, with approximately 30% of our fleet unavailable due to mechanical or repair related problems. The initial aim is to reduce this position to no more than 10% in Year 1 with the longer-term plan to reduce to 5%.
The framework agreements will be non-exclusive, and the Authority cannot give any commitment to volume of vehicle servicing or maintenance repair or guarantee of spend during the contract period. Prices to remain fixed for the duration of the contract.
It is the Authority’s desire to move as much Vehicle Service and Maintenance Repair work to its internal workshops, however the Authority recognises the need to have contracted parties to provide a maintenance, service, and repair solution, which includes roadside assistance where there is no current internal capacity.
There is also a need to provide further support options in the event of lack of internal capacity or to support in times of high demand or absence within its own workforce given the national lack of qualified vehicle technicians.
The Authority currently has 10 (ten) workshops across EEAST although there is a plan to increase workshops as new Ambulance hubs are built.
