The contract will be awarded for 3 years with a possible extension of 2 years by mutual consent and on the same terms and conditions as the original contract.
Contract value over the group of schools is circa GBP 500 000 per year.
Regarding the labour establishments across the MAT, there are a number of staff that are currently in the Local Government Pension Scheme, and staff that can join if they so wish. Therefore, the successful Supplier will have to apply for Admitted Body Status and pay all setup associated costs. An actuary report will be provided as part of the TUPE information, but it is not guaranteed that the successful supplier will not need to obtain another actuary report as part of the ABS process — the cost of any additional actuary reports will need to be covered by the successful supplier, as stated above. After the 10-day standstill period, Suppliers must contact Calvin Matthews via email (cmatthews@cornwall.gov.uk) so that the ABS agreement can proceed. Please ensure that the pension contribution rates and information from the actuary reports are used when in the submission of labour costs.
Please note the schools will be visited over three days on 17, 18 and 19 March 2020.
Suppliers are to arrive at the relevant school’s reception 15 minutes prior to mid-morning break. Suppliers will leave site after mid-morning break and return 10 minutes prior to lunch service.
Please note that no further unit site visits will be held after these dates.
Each suppliers’ site visit attendees will need to be notified to Ruth Lile in respect of all dates by 16 March 2020.
Suppliers’ sales and operations teams should be made fully aware of this requirement for them to have time to plan resources for these visits to be undertaken.
Please note, the successful Supplier will pay consultancy fee on award of each of this contract, which will be to the value of GBP 6 750.00 plus VAT.
