Abstract

The aim of the service is to provide an efficient and effective technical support service to the

KCHFT Community Dental Services to ensure that the inhalation sedation equipment used

by KCHFT Community Dental Service meets the requisite health and safety standards to

minimise risks to patients who are undergoing treatment.

The Provider will ensure that all staff are appropriately qualified and competent to undertake

the work for which they are responsible and undertake continuous professional development

to maintain professional competencies.

The Provider will undertake annual planned equipment maintenance on each piece of

inhalation sedation equipment at the sites listed at Appendix 1 and will arrange such work to

ensure that it is completed with the minimal potential disruption to clinical services. The

Provider expects that, under normal circumstances, all items of inhalation sedation

equipment at an individual site are available to test during a single visit.

Planning will be carried out jointly between provider and authoriser dependant on availability

of engineers and access to clinical facilities. To be conducted on an annual basis.

The Provider will contact the KCHFT Dental Engineering Manager to schedule planned and

reactive maintenance visits, ahead of the necessary work and, whenever possible, will plan

for an entire year ahead or a substantial part thereof in agreement with the KCHFT Dental

Engineering Manager found at page 1 of this contract.

Where routine maintenance has identified a need for remedial action, then this will be

notified to the KCHFT Dental Engineering Manager. KCHFT will then make the appropriate

arrangements for return visit so that remedial works can be completed within 10 working

days.

The supply of consumables encompasses the core list specified in the commercial schedule

and may during the term of the contract extend beyond these items and the list is not

exhaustive.

Price is not the only award criterion and all criteria are stated only in the procurement

documents which will be released to the supplier once they express interest.
