Falmouth Exeter Plus (FXPlus) needs one contractor to maintain and service movable partitions, raked seating, and racking systems across their Penryn and Falmouth campuses in Cornwall. This is a 3-year contract with potential to extend by up to 2 additional years.
Requirements
- Single contractor appointment (no consortiums unless specified in full tender)
- Ability to service movable partitions across two campuses
- Ability to service and maintain raked seating systems
- Ability to service and maintain racking systems
- Coverage of both Penryn and Falmouth campuses in Cornwall
- No specific certifications or qualifications mentioned in this summary — check full tender documents for required accreditations (e.g., Health & Safety, insurance requirements, equipment-specific certifications)
Key Tasks & Deliverables
- Regular servicing and maintenance of movable partition systems at both campuses
- Regular servicing and maintenance of raked seating systems at both campuses
- Regular servicing and maintenance of racking systems at both campuses
- Respond to repair and fault reports within agreed timeframes
- Keep detailed maintenance records and provide reports to FXPlus
- Ensure all systems remain safe and operational throughout the 36-month contract term
How to Read This Tender
- 1Check what 'servicing' means in detail — request the full tender document to see if it's preventive maintenance only, or includes emergency repairs and replacement parts
- 2The contract is 36 months (3 years) fixed, but can be extended twice for 12 months each — budget your pricing to remain competitive if you want contract extensions
- 3Two campuses means you'll need logistics and scheduling across Penryn and Falmouth — factor in travel time and whether you need staff or equipment stationed at each location
- 4Look for the service level agreement (SLA) — this will specify how quickly you must respond to breakdowns and what availability is required (e.g., 24-hour response, Monday-Friday only)
- 5The term 'single contractor' is important — FXPlus wants one point of contact responsible for all three system types; check if you can handle all three or if you'll need to subcontract parts of the work
Tips for Small Businesses
- If you specialise in only one of the three systems (partitions, seating, or racking), consider partnering with other specialists via a subcontracting agreement before you bid — you can still bid as the single contractor but bring in expertise where needed
- Long-term contracts (3 years) appeal to universities because they provide budget certainty — emphasise reliability, staffing consistency, and your ability to maintain service throughout the full term
- Universities often score social value heavily — highlight local recruitment, apprenticeships, support for campus accessibility, or sustainability measures in your bid (check the full tender for scoring criteria)
