Risks to the satisfactory performance of the Contract may include, but are not limited to: disruption to supply chains affecting the availability, delivery or lead times of Material Handling Equipment; changes in market conditions impacting equipment availability, pricing or manufacturer specifications; shortages of spare parts or components; and the availability or retention of suitably qualified engineers to deliver service and maintenance across multiple sites.
Additional risks may arise from changes to operational requirements, demand profiles, site configurations or working practices during the term of the Contract, as well as changes in applicable legislation, regulatory requirements, health and safety standards, or manufacturer guidance affecting the use, maintenance or compliance of equipment.
There is also a risk of operational disruption arising from equipment failure, unplanned downtime, or the need to replace or substitute equipment models due to obsolescence or withdrawal by manufacturers.
These risks will be managed through the requirements set out in the Specification and Contract, including minimum equipment standards, service response times, continuity arrangements, and contract management processes. Optional services, including training and service and maintenance of Authority-owned equipment, may be commissioned at the Authority’s discretion where required to mitigate identified risks. No minimum volumes or spend are guaranteed under the Contract.
