Tender description
We sought quotations from Locksmiths. They were identified from Check a Trade and the internet. The criteria was: Must be a registered qualified locksmith Must be based in Hackney or surrounding borders Hackney Council currently spends about £17k - £24k per year on locksmith services and we use a variety of locksmiths in the local area. We have approached a number of local locksmiths to ask if they would be willing to offer the London Borough of Hackney fixed prices for specific services at a discounted rate, on the basis that we would then add then to a list of our preferred providers and contact those companies willing to offer us a discounted rate first. This would not mean a guarantee of any work, and they do not have to guarantee to be able to offer the service but we would come to the most competitive providers first. The primary purpose is to identify local Locksmith companies, both in terms of value for money, and responsiveness. Quality of work based on the first 6 months of contract - using feedback from Mental Health services.
