Tenderers are required to submit a full service, materials, and equipment proposal setting out how they propose to meet the specific requirements as set out in Appendix I. The service provider will be required to be on site regularly and allocate a minimum of 8 hours per week (Monday to Friday) for 52 weeks for the provision of this service. This minimum may be subject to change dependent on seasonal changes and the Embassy’s business needs. A weekly log of activities and hours worked will be recorded and submitted to the Embassy’s contract manager who will supervise the provision of this service. Tenderers should note that the Embassy reserves the right to reduce the requirements during the lifetime of the contract. The selected service provider will be required to cooperate with the Embassy in adjusting services should this be required. It is envisaged that the contract will run for an initial term of one year. The Embassy reserves the right to extend the term for a further 1 year with a maximum of 3 such extensions subject to satisfactory performance and the Embassy’s needs. The maximum contract duration therefore will be 4 years.
