This opportunity is for the maintenance of the Safari fleet and heavy plant at Werribee Open Range Zoo (WORZ). There are six prime movers and three deluxe safari units that make up core safari fleet, in addition there will be an opportunity for the maintenance of additional heavy plant and equipment.

Part of Zoos Victoria strategy is continuous improvement in workplace health and safety focusing on both front and back of house infrastructure which also incorporates world class exhibits and care facilities for all Staff, Guests and Animals under its care. As an operating facility the Zoo is expected to maintain its standards across all departments and have a safe, efficient and workable environment while adhering to all legal requirements.

As such WORZ is tendering for the provision of its fleet mechanical services for our fleet of safari buses and trailers, deluxe safari vehicles, and heavy plant. These licensed tradespeople will carry out services for reactive callouts, planned maintenance and emergency situations. Suppliers will also need to not only deliver the services in a professional and timely manner but work with internal asset management data base as well.

WORZ is looking to establish a panel of up to two service providers and the fleet services contract term is for 1 years with two one-year option's to extend at the absolute discretion of Zoos Victoria.

WORZ Asset and Facilities Department is the internal client representative for the proposed service maintenance contract.
