Tender description
Translink wishes to appoint a suitable contractor to provide workwear and structured garments to staff numbers in the region of 3 700. There is a unionised environment operating in around 30 main depots throughout Northern Ireland. Issue cycle frequencies are 18 months. The next roll-out will take place in May 2020. To prepare for a roll-out, the current process is for Translink’s HR Department to collect order forms from Uniform Coordinators at each location and log the orders onto a spreadsheet for the uniform/workwear providers. Translink is keen to move to a fully managed service where this is a direct relationship between the employee and the Contractor, with zero/minimal input or coordination required by Translink’s HR Department and Uniform Coordinators.
