The main factor that determines how work is allocated to a sub-contractor is value for money. Value for money is measured by assessing the sub-contractors ability to perform the required service against the schedule of rates for maintenance services. In addition there is an assessment of the subcontractor’s capacity to complete the work within the expected timeframe. Performance and quality are also taken into account. The CSO provides the tenant with a job number and an approximate time for completion of the work.
Work allocated to Asset Services, a subsidiary of Spotless is mainly undertaken at older persons accommodation under the Older Persons Safety and Security program. This includes the installation of screen doors, peep holes, night latches, patio bolts and window locks.
