The partnership, which commences in December 2010 is worth £1.6 million per annum and is for the provision of a range of repairs and maintenance services, including day to day responsive repairs, out of hours repairs and void maintenance services to council’s 4,600 properties across Dover, Deal and Sandwich.
Guy Wakeley, Chief Executive of Morrison said: “We are extremely pleased to have been awarded this new contract with Dover District Council and look forward to working with Dover to build upon our joint commitment to provide a first class repairs service to residents.
“This new contract will be run alongside our existing partnership with Shepway District Council in Folkestone, which commenced in April and enables us to further strengthen our position along the Kent coast.”
Morrison will introduce a number of service improvements when it commences work in December, including new handheld technology and appointment scheduling systems, which will help to create a more efficient and effective service for residents.
