      Good day, all,  I am looking to see if anyone has set up a vendor of record for the use of outside contractors on a long-term scale contract. I am being asked to move away from the Blanket purchase order system and set up a VOR list with competitive quotes on measurables like, Hourly rate. Mark up on the material. Overtime rate. reaction time if an emergency. After-hour call-in.  Fanshawe does have a VOR list for engineering support and Project GC, however this platform does not support the facility maintenance side of the business.

       

      Thanks in advance for any future response.

      Hi,

      At loyalist, we setup most of our VORs when going out for quote, usually RFP/RFQ.  We add wording in the tender or quoting package that the successful bidder or most recently bidders (2) will be setup as a VOR.  We add wording that the successful vendor will be added as a VOR asking the bidders to provide hourly, day, weekend, OT rates, travel, emergency response time etc…  For example:  AC1 rooftop has failed, working with Purchasing we go out for quote to replace a Rooftop unit valued at $20,000.  When awarded, we setup the vendor(s) on an HVAC VOR for future work and projects up to $99,999.  Vendors are setup for 3+1+1 years.  We have been successful in setting up plumbing, electrical, HVAC, Flooring for $99K and GC which is now set for construction projects at  over $300K.

      We have also had some success with OECM.

      Hope this helps you,

      Chris
