Maintenance of Macerators

The Trust's has awarded a contract for planned preventative and reactive maintenance of its macerators.

The macerators are used across the Trust's sites to break up solids, e.g. cardboard, bottles etc into a pulped liquid that is then pumped to allow easy drain off. Therefore, the Trust requires a supplier that is able to provide call out services 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.

The contract was procured via direct award under the NHS Supply Chain Maintenance, Repair & Calibration of Medical Equipment Framework, Lot 14: Decontamination (Macerators) (https://www.supplychain.nhs.uk/product-information/contract-launch-brief/maintenance-repair-and-calibration-of-medical-equipment/)
