Value

100,000 GBP

Description

The University of Plymouth is seeking for an an initial estimate by way of day/week rates for a specialist move contractor to undertake the relocation of a range of scientific and heavy engineering equipment during the summer of 2023. Works will include decommissioning, dismantling, and moving identified items of equipment and installation, testing, calibrating where appropriate and commissioning in the new building. The equipment schedule and moves programme is still to be confirmed after various tenders for new equipment have concluded - hence the request for high level day/week rates and our preference to engage with contractors that will work with a degree of flexibility regarding programme until this has been confirmed in early 2023. In terms of appointment, the University has certain thresholds which could trigger the requirement for a formal tender process based on the returned estimated. Please see attached following supporting documentation: High Level Moves Programme - Showing the confirmed key constraints and is summarised as follows: • Building in Use Date 18/09/23 or earlier. This date cannot shift to the right. • Earliest start date for works on site from first week in June where we will have early access to the building, ahead of contractual completion. • A three week embargo from accessing the new building will be in place from 03/07/23 to 21/07/23 • Contractual Completion 27/07/23 - risk of delay reasonably low.
