The Contractor may be asked to undertake works not included in this Specification from time to time. Aside from the cost of materials, additional works should be delivered within the hours of the existing cleaning operatives or, where necessary, provided by additional staff paid for on an agreed hourly basis or by a quoted fixed price. The contract will commence on 1 January 2022 for an initial contract period of three years, with the option to extend the contract for a further two 12-month periods. This extension will be granted by mutual consent and on the same terms and conditions as the original contract. The contract will be fixed price in nature. Financial constraints affecting all schools mean that a robust and cost-effective solution must be provided.
