Maintenance of Mobile Breast Screening Trailers and Mobile MRI Trailers

The Trust has three medical trailers for which it requires ongoing maintenance services. Two of the trailers are mobile breast screening trailers (one is 14 years old and the other is coming up to 1 years' old) and the other trailer is a mobile MRI trailer (this trailer is 7 years old). The Trust's high level requirements are periodic servicing (see below for further details) of the trailers, MOT tests, a responsive repairs service and a warranty covering repairs (including labour, travel and materials) with the exception of those caused by normal wear & tear, damage caused by the Trust and damage caused by patients.
