The Free Zone of Cádiz has achieved significant savings of more than 70% after the award of the maintenance contract for all the elevators of its buildings, which include those existing in the interior enclosure and those of the North Fund of the Carranza building.
In total ten elevators, awarded to the company Thyssenkrupp Elevadores SL, which will be in charge of preventive and corrective maintenance of the two elevators of the Atlas building, two others in the Heracles, two in the European building, one in the Melkart and another in the stop parking, all in the fiscal enclosure, in addition to the two existing ones in the north background of the Carranza building.
The contract will last two years and the total amount is 14,880 euros (VAT not included), which will involve a reduction in the cost for the consortium of more than 70%. It should be noted that the previous contracts were an annual disbursement of more than 29,000 euros and there were several companies that were responsible for maintenance work.
The work that Thyssen will carry out ensures the necessary quality in the facilities of the Free Zone, ensuring the attention of breakdowns and rescue during the 24 hours every day of the year.
This award continues the efficient rationalization line of spending, with a savings policy that already has an important example in the implementation of the energy service of improvement, efficiency and savings in the parking that the consortium has in the city, Carranza and Glorieta, in the outer enclosure, and Parking in height, inside, which will also assume a saving for the Gaditano consortium of more than 50%.
Zona Franca will continue to deepen this policy of reducing expenses, so necessary in the current era, maintaining the same services, without reducing comfort or quality of life, for which it will address in a new phase the implementation of the public lighting project for the entire Fiscal Area and thus once again reduce the energy bill and dependence.
