Maintenance Contract for Combined Heat and Power System (CHP)

Description

In 2009 The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust installed a Caterpillar G3516 EPG Standard (GAS00135) Combined Heat and Power (CHP) system to supplement the site power demands and heating requirements. The existing maintenance agreement needs to be reviewed, therefore the Trust is inviting tenders for the maintenance and service of the CHP system comprising genset and controls to deliver electricity and waste heat to the existing site services within the Hospital boiler-house. The maintenance contract is now due for renewal and the Trust will be awarding a three year contract with the option to extend for a further 2 x 12 month periods. During the third year of the contract there will be a review period to allow both parties to consider continuing the contract based on fixed pricing with the option to extend for a further two 12 month extensions.
