Robert May's School, Odiham, Hampshire, UNITED KINGDOM.
II.2.4) Description of the procurement
The school has 1 229 students currently on roll and 170 teaching and support staff. Due to demographic pressures from local residential growth, the academy is increasing its Admission Numbers from Sept 2019 over a period of 4 years which will give projected student numbers of 1350 by 2023 thereby increasing capacity for 1 additional form of entry.
To accommodate the planned increase in student numbers, a new school building will require cleaning from September 2018. This building will include a relocated reception and library, as well as 4 new classrooms and student toilets. The existing library and other areas adjacent to the dining hall are scheduled for redevelopment enabling a larger dining hall and 2 additional science classrooms, to be completed by mid October 2018.
The tender project is seeking to appoint a supplier whose initiative and innovation will be welcomed for the provision of service within the existing facilities for the 1 229 students on roll and 170 teaching and support staff, with a focus on exciting new food concepts to satisfy a wide range of students tastes and dietary requirements. The client would wish the successful supplier to review the current range of services offered and make recommendations accordingly.
The contract being tendered is for three years in duration from 23.7.2018 to July 2021, with an option by the client to extend to July 2023. The contract will operate as a guaranteed performance contract, with the successful supplier offering the client a guaranteed cost per annum for the provision of cleaning services.
The academic year is based on a calendar of 195 days. 4 days are to be used for staff professional development which means that school will be open to receive students for the legal minimum of 191 days.
The contract offered covers the scope for the provision of all cleaning services within the school currently comprising 7 buildings over a fairly compact site – mainly classrooms and offices with a few specialist areas including a Sports Hall, Gym, Drama Studio, Dining Hall and a Main Hall. Due to the Building works, there will be a phased schedule for the cleaning of specific areas as they come online.
The age profile of the buildings from October 2018 is as follows:
— 2018 is 9 %,
— 2000-2017 is 27 %,
— 1990-2000 is 9 %,
— 1980-1990 is 27 %,
— 1975 (original) -1980 is 27 %.
The older buildings have undergone modernisation and improvement and all areas are in a good state of condition and repair.
Whilst the client prioritises value for money as a key objective of the competitive tender process, the governing body is not obliged to accept the lowest price.
The value of the current contract is:
2017/18: 85 914,72 GBP
The nature of the contract demands a good local infrastructure to provide and maintain the level and standard of cleaning and support required by the academy management team. Labour resource and relief cover is very important for meeting the performance criteria of this contract.
Please be advised that this contract will be let on a 3 + 2 years basis to commence from 23.7.2018.
