## About this tender

For this project Leeds City College and Leeds College of Music are looking to engage with a supplier to provide a solution for our water fountains and water cooler / dispenser needs across multiple campuses and centres. Due to our requirements we will be accessing the ESPO Framework 900w Water Coolers across two Lots and will be looking for a comprehensive solution across our full estate.

A full specification of our needs and requirements can be found in Appendix D broken down across the pertinent Lots.

The contract will be managed by Leeds City College and Leeds College of Music respectively and review meetings shall be expected on a quarterly basis alongside generation and sharing of suitable management information. The review meetings will enable discussion not limited to the review of contract, discussing such matters as KPIs, complaints or poor performance, overperformance, improvements and developments, changes in key personnel, processes or services, new products, innovations and trends and management information.

The contract awarded is to be that included in the initial ESPO framework documentation and shall be let on a 24 month term with a potential 12 month extension at the mutual confirmation and acceptance of both the supplier and the contracting party.

Additional information: This opportunity is being run as further competition from ESPO Framework 900W Water Coolers, it is therefore open to any suppliers awarded to the ESPO Framework 900W Water Coolers in Lots Two and Lot Four as appropriate. Submissions from suppliers not awarded to the appropriate Lot or appropriate framework will be unable to tender for this opportunity.
