## About this tender

The Horniman wishes to appoint a qualified contractor to undertake the ongoing maintenance and emergency response for our lifts at both the main Forest Hill site and our storage facility in Greenwich.

Both sites are fully operational, occupied and staffed. The main museum is open to the public, Monday to Sunday from 10am - 5:30pm. The lifts are an important aspect to remain accessible for all visitors. If one of the lifts stops functioning, there is not a second lift to cover the same area. It is important that there is very limited downtime, preferably scheduled for our visitor facing lifts. The museum is a family friendly visitor attraction, meaning there are a large number of pushchairs and prams each day which rely on the use of the lifts to navigate the site.

The lifts at both sites are used to transport objects and collection pieces throughout the museum and storage facility.

There is a new lift currently being installed to replace the main museum visitor lift (Upgrade from hydraulic to traction machine room-less lift). Maintenance arrangements for this lift will be resolved at the end of the 12 month defects period.

This a fully comprehensive contract, including spare parts for replacement, and a full paperwork trail.

The contract covers call outs, repairs and reactive entrapment site visits.

The contract is to last three years.
