Tender: Planned Maintenance of Thermostatic Mixing Valves and Taps – Gloucestershire Royal & Cheltenham General Hospitals

About

Procurement opportunity is seeking a supplier for planned preventative maintenance, testing, inspection, cleaning, disinfection, recommissioning, defect identification, reporting and associated maintenance services for thermostatic mixing valves, thermostatic taps, shower mixers and associated components across Gloucestershire Royal Hospital and Cheltenham General Hospital to support the Authority's water management arrangements, reduce scalding risk, reduce the risk of harmful pathogen development and maintain safe and compliant water services across the Authority’s estate. The contractor must deliver six‑monthly maintenance activities including a full strip down, cleaning and disinfection during the first six‑month period and fail‑safe testing during the second six‑month period, keep accurate records, provide reporting and attend contract review meetings. Most service visits are expected during weekday working hours (Gloucestershire Royal Hospital standard access 08:00–16:00; Cheltenham General Hospital standard access 07:30–15:30), though access to Theatres and the IGIS Centre may require Saturday attendance 08:00–16:00; where only one technician is deployed at each main site, up to six consecutive Saturdays every six months may be required. The contractor must coordinate dates with the on-site Operational Estates Team, ensure ward and departmental staff are aware before work commences, complete each assigned area before moving on unless access is denied, make repeated visits or enquiries for difficult areas and notify the on-site Operational Estates Team if access is denied on more than three repeated visits.
