Mechanical installations

Tender description

NEUPC, in collaboration with Durham, Newcastle, Northumbria, Sunderland and Teesside Universities has put in place a framework agreement for the provision of various mechanical works, comprising of small building installations, refurbishments, repairs, maintenance and improvements on university premises. The works will involve all aspects of mechanical works, typical of University buildings such as but not limited to laboratories, small and complex lecture theatres, Libraries, café and commercial kitchens, offices (individual and open plan), public areas, meeting rooms, conference rooms, accommodation, plant areas, etc. As well as the above types, appointed contractors will be expected to carry out works in buildings of varying age/condition, listed/heritage type buildings. It is envisaged that the majority of call-offs from this framework will come from Durham, Newcastle and Sunderland. The call-offs will be predominantly low value (sub 50 000 GBP) but there will be several higher value schemes called-off throughout the duration of the framework. A significant percentage of the low value call-offs will need an urgent response. Appointed contractors will need to be able to react efficiently and quickly to any request made. Ability to be on site in a short period of time is an essential requirement of this agreement.
