Problems - Drinking water units did not meet with new image

A large Healthcare group was looking to rebrand and as part of this exercise they wanted to modernise and rationalise the hundreds of water units of varying types throughout the Group. (Mains fed and Bottled water).

TLC’s Solution

Having advised the client on the various water systems available on the market (taking into account this particular clients stringent Health & Safety requirements) TLC prepared a bespoke Invitation to Tender (ITT) document and forwarded this to the identified shortlisted potential suppliers.

On receipt of the replies, three Companies were shortlisted by the client and bidder presentations were arranged by TLC. Following consultation a preferred supplier was chosen by the client to supply all their UK locations. Unsuccessful bidders were debriefed by TLC.

A full implementation plan was then compiled by TLC, along with instructions with regards to plumbing, electrical, H&S and security and issued to the relevant parties involved with the mobilisation. TLC coordinated the entire programme in line with the launch of the companies rebranding and modernisation programme.

The Outcome

TLC’s expert industry knowledge meant that the client received impartial, objective advice and assisted in the machine base being significantly reduced and a saving of around £250k over the 5 year contract period.
