"description": "The current Facilities Management (FM) contract is delivered through Sussex Estates and Facilities (SEF), a Joint Venture owned by the University (majority shareholder) and the current partner, Mitie.\nSussex is seeking a Supplier who can ensure that SEF offers an excellent service quality and\nvalue for money. This must be founded on high levels of innovation, the intelligent use of\ntechnology and opportunities to capitalise on the benefits associated with working with an\nexternal Supplier, including the willingness to bring investment on a ‘spend to save’ basis.\nThe FM Services agreement will be between the University and SEF, however it is the\nSupplier's responsibility to manage and lead the SEF team to deliver the required level of\nservice in a cost effective manner.\nUnlike the current contract, the University has chosen a hybrid model of delivery. Service lines to\nbe included in the new FM Services agreement are outlined below with further details provided in the Descriptive Document contained within the Procurement Pack.\n•\tFacilities Management Services (including Event Management Services)\n•\tBuilding Fabric, Mechanical & Electrical and Infrastructure Maintenance Services\n•\tCleaning Services\n•\tSecurity Services\n•\tHelpdesk Services\n•\tLogistics Services\n•\tWaste Services\n•\tTransport Services\n•\tPrint and Reprographics Services\n•\tGrounds Maintenance Services (including Sports Grounds and Pest Control)\nThe FM Services agreement covers all of the University’s Premises. This is predominantly on\nthe main campus in Falmer, with a smaller collection of buildings on other sites, in the centre\nof Brighton and in Falmer Village itself.\nThe University has opted to use the Competitive Dialogue procedure to conduct this procurement. Additional information: The total turnover for SEF is currently estimated at c£170,000,000 over the 10 year contract period\nPlease note that this figure has been used for the purpose of populating the Estimated Value field in this Notice.\nThe estimated dividend to the Supplier based on the current shareholding of £35% is £800k - £1m per annum",
