The Trust are seeking a suitably experienced contractor who can evidence working within the education sector. The successful contractor will have a proven track record in directly delivering and managing technically demanding Facilities Management services, and already have a strong operational base nationally. This is important to allow 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) 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.

ATT expects to retain elements of maintenance provision which will be delivered by their internal team and the incoming contractor shall be expected to interface effectively with ATT internal teams.

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