I just received an email from this company.

Contract Reference: NUS-NN-GAS
Postcode Area of Coverage: “NN” Postal Code
Duration: 24 Months
Start Date: Friday the 17[SUP]th[/SUP] of February
Minimum Requirements: Fully Gas Safe registered with a minimum of £1 million Public Liability

Who We Are:


NUS Ltd are the UK’s leading Property Management Company who offer a range of property maintenance services to a host of Clients all over the UK.

We have become one of the UK’s fastest expanding Companies that are able to cover all aspects of Gas, Electrical, General Maintenance and legal property services to our Clients on a national basis and strive to continue with our Company growth as the property sector and legal requirements change on a daily basis.

With our national network of Engineers & Companies in place, providing all aspects of mandatory property services, NUS Ltd have secured some of the U.K’s most creditable contracts within both the property management sector and also with a host of Insurance Companies & Banking Groups within the UK.

Our unique all in one service gives our Clients the peace of mind that all of their maintenance needs are being covered under the one roof, which in return reduces the hassle they face in this current climate having to source 4 or 5 individual Companies to carry our different types of work.

What We Do:

NUS Ltd offer full gas and electrical services as well as a full maintenance package to a host of Clients within the UK.

Our unique all in one service means that we look after all of their mandatory gas and electrical requirements within their property portfolios and our full maintenance package covers a host of services ranging from painting and decorating right through to full kitchen & bathroom installations.

Each Client we deal with are contracted in to use the services of NUS Ltd and will only use the tradesman we select for each individual contract within a specific area.

We are currently looking for a gas engineer/ company to be able to look after 400 properties within the “NN” and surrounding Postal Code area, covering landlord safety certificates, servicing on boilers and there will also be the need to cover all breakdowns, repairs, installation and remedial as part of the agreement.

Around 40% of this specific contract will be covering the void/repossession work that we manage for the banking groups and insurance firms that we deal with and within these properties, the chosen company will be required to cover drain downs, decommissioning of the boilers as well as any remedial work that will be required on an individual basis.

Within the repossessed houses, some of the properties will be handed over to the lettings market for rental purpose and will require you to revisit once a tenant has been found to refill the systems, turn both the gas and water supplies back on as well as carrying out a full Landlords Gas Safety Certificate and service of the boiler before anyone can move back into the property.

The Contract will be based on a 24 Month Period and there will be an audit done every 3 months on 3.5% of the work. This is something that our clients have requested that we are required to do as part of the agreement we have in place. As you will probably imagine, this in turn also makes sure all service levels are being met and ensures all relevant feedback is being given to all parties involved.

We will only be implementing one company or engineer to cover this contract and they will get the exclusive rights within the area to cover this contract.

We are looking for a company that is looking to expand over the next few years, who are able to fit our required workload in and around their current diaries and who are also able to deliver a high level of customer service and complete the work to the highest standards.

There will be a full time Client Manager allocated to manage the contracts full duration. He or she will be responsible for the allocation of work, also dealing with all our clients requirements and making sure the selected company has a consistent level of work that is manageable to their Company, meaning they are always busy and have a consistent flow of workout throughout the contract.

They rang me today to ask why I declined the contract and if there was anything they could do, I said your business dident pan out and he hung up on me! Definitely a scam, who wouldn't defend there business
 
Didn't think so. Any genuine firm would be happy taking a commission from each job. Really hope no-one falls for it. Lot of people starting up not as cynical as I've gotten!
 
Phoned Sheffield trading standards yesterday to see if these clowns have popped up on their radar. Bloke said nothing on their database, no complaints or owt but as they've now done a search it will be flagged if anyone does get stung.
 
has anyone had any dealings with service magic keep getting e mails asking me to buy leads cos i slipped up and made a genral enquiry because the advert looked good and i had no work on at the time not sure how many they sell the lead to or if its even worth bothering because the custmers might just play the plumbers off on prices so you end up paying to do a job for next to nothing think i have just answered my own question but just on the off chance it works has anyone got any better ideas
 
don't join. you pay a lot for lead and 5 tradesmen can get customers details, not like rated people who gives 3, so similar carp. i had a call from service magic asking for some deposit etc.

Out of curiosity, just after I joined GSR (not in search yet) I had a call from some guy calling on behalf of some charity asking me to join their magazine with promising of advertising etc. So to me it seems like somebody in GSR is selling details.

These are located in and around the N postal code area. This is in relevance to the ongoing gas works and subsequent maintenance requirements over the next 24 months.
For the last 2 or 3 weeks I have been in contact with a number of engineers and we are slowly compiling our shortlist of interested parties.

Audit

The Contract will be based on a 24 Month Period and there will be an audit done every 3 months on 3.5% of the work. This is something that our clients have requested that we are required to do as part of the agreement we have in place. As you will probably imagine, this in turn also makes sure all service levels are being met and ensure all relevant feedback is being given to all parties involved.

Contracts Fee

The N Postal Code area contract is completely free to apply for and there is absolutely no fee required in order to find out more information or to be considered for the contract.
The Contractors Fee is in place as we no longer take any commission from our Contractors for any work that is issued out and completed throughout the duration of this contract. This is due to previous experiences when running similar contracts within the UK.
In the past we have found by only working on a commission basis, there is no firm level of commitment in place, resulting in the level of service we were receiving and the reliability of the Engineer to be much lower than what both ourselves and our Clients would expect.
By stopping the commission structure and implementing the Contractors Fee at the start of the contract, we have now established that the commitment levels between ourselves and our Contractors have drastically improved resulting in better workmanship and a better all round services being offered to our clients.
Also from a completely selfish point of view, we have to ensure we are attracting the best possible Companies to these contracts and removing the timewasters from the process from day one.
The Contractors Fee for the N postal code area is a one off fee of £1823+VAT.
This is only made payable for the contract if you were to be the selected Company and implemented for the contract. This would be paid on commencement of the contract only, there are no more financial obligations throughout the duration of the contract.
If you feel that you are the right company or engineer for this contract and can deliver the service requirements for our National Clients and would like to find out more regarding the Contract opportunity then please either fill in the Vendors form by clicking the link provided and a member of the team will contact you back and cover all you enquiries and explain the types of work and the areas in question that you will be covering.

Testimonials


I***************e Ltd, Manchester (L** *****l): Gas Safe: 5*****


I have been working with NUS Ltd since August 2011 and our working relationship has grown from strength to strength. My Company offers a full General Maintenance package ranging from basic plumbing right through to full electrical installs and I have been receiving all types of work from this contract from day one.


When I started with NUS, I only had 10 Engineers employed directly but over the past few months with the workload I have been provided from this contract, I now employ 27 Engineers from various sectors to cover the work from NUS and my own personal contracts and to date it has been a great business decision to accept the contract offer from NUS.


The initial fee that I had to pay when awarded the contract was made back and more within the first month of taking on the contract and I have never looked back from the day I was awarded the contract.


I would recommend NUS Ltd to any other Company that is looking for a consistent level of work and the opportunity to grow their Business.
