Tender: Boiler and Plumbing Maintenance Services – Port of Felixstowe

About

The Felixstowe Dock and Railway Company is seeking a supplier for comprehensive boiler and plumbing maintenance services across its Port of Felixstowe estate. Services required include planned preventative maintenance of boiler plant, hot water systems and unvented water heaters, annual servicing and efficiency testing, routine inspections and condition monitoring, Legionella-related water flushing, weekly inspections of designated toilet and urinal facilities, and the maintenance of accurate auditable records to support statutory compliance, asset replacement and energy efficiency programmes. The contractor must also provide responsive plumbing services for equipment breakdowns, water leaks, blocked toilets, urinals and sinks and other plumbing faults, including emergency call-out provision during and outside normal working hours with defined response and attendance times, work closely with the Purchaser’s Building Services team, and undertake minor installation and upgrade works where requested. It is anticipated that a number of buildings on the port estate will be demolished during 2028 and the Purchaser may remove services for those buildings without constituting a change in scope; TUPE may apply and the Purchaser may invite only the top five suppliers following evaluation of qualification submissions to be invited to tender.
