What is being bought

Published requirement description

Access Management service

Curo wish to appoint a single contractor to carry out works comprising of a programme of servicing and maintenance (planned preventative maintenance), remedials, call out reactive repairs and reactive installations/upgrades across Curo's Access Control assets.

For this contracts, Access Control assets include:

  • Powered Doors
  • Powered Gates
  • Powered Barriers
  • Powered Shutters
  • Salto Locks
  • Intercoms

These assets require regular servicing and maintenance to ensure that they are kept safe, operational and are fit for purpose. In addition to servicing and maintenance the Contractor will be required to attend ad-hoc callouts when required to fault find as and when issues arise, and to deliver the necessary reactive repairs. From time-to-time assets may require replacing or upgrading, which will also be under the purview of this contract, however, Curo does not have a planned programme of replacements/upgrades and so the contractor will deliver replacements/upgrades only when the need arises.
