These outlets feature a diverse array of catering equipment, including commercial ovens, deep fryers, grills etc. Additionally, the retail outlet, Fresh Grocery Store, features commercial ovens in its bakery section. We require a supplier who is readily available for reactive maintenance callouts for this extensive and varied range of equipment. Additionally, a robust Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) service is crucial. We are looking for a supplier who can adapt to our aging estate and focus on PPM with detailed service reports. This approach is to ensure everyday repairs are managed efficiently, and a long-term economic assessment of our current estate is facilitated to ultimately achieve cost savings.Contract periodNot publishedEligibilityNot publishedOptions / renewalNot published
