The School are seeking a suitably experienced contractor who is able to evidence working within the education sector. The successful contractor will already have a strong operational base within London, thus allowing for both adequate contract support and operational flexibility that is to be delivered to support the contract as and when needed moving forwards into this contract term.

TUPE is expected to apply to an onsite, dedicated team. It is anticipated that some of the employees are members of the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) and therefore the successful contractor will be expected to gain Admitted Body Status (ABS) in order to continue contributing to the scheme. Suitable cover should be provided through a base of Engineers for absence, expected and unexpected. Outside of this, it is expected that the successful Contractor may need to engage the services of specialist sub-contractors, where necessary.

A suitable Computer Aided Faculties Management (CAFM) system is expected to be required.

The duration of the contract being offered is for an initial three-year period commencing on 1 September 2021 and concluding on 31 August 2024, with the potential to extend for a further period of two 12-month periods.

The contract being offered within this tender will be on a guaranteed performance basis.
