II.2.4) Description of the procurement
The key contract specification is for the contractor to operate from a facility within the city boundary in order to minimise transport time between their facility and NCC’s two main hubs at Telford Street Depot and the Waste Disposal Site. This helps to maximise operational efficiency by reducing travel time, the time vehicles are non-operational (down-time) and minimises emissions from diesel/petrol vehicles.
The contractor will be required to carry out both scheduled maintenance as specified by NCC and unplanned maintenance to vehicle faults/breakdowns as they are reported and provide a 24/7 breakdown and vehicle recovery service.
Planned maintenance comprises scheduled safety inspections, services and MOT’s as required by law and in accordance with terms and conditions of NCC’s Goods Vehicle Operators Licence at specified intervals dependant on the type of vehicle and to attend to any vehicle at any time when requested to do so by NCC.
As part of the scheduled maintenance process, the contractor is required to submit their hourly labour rate and specify times taken to carry out various tasks for each category of vehicle. This allows NCC to calculate how much the annual planned maintenance of the fleet will cost.
