ServiceSport UK awarded Ministry of Justice contract for gym equipment maintenance in prisons

19 Jul 2024
ServiceSport UK has been awarded the Ministry of Justice contract for the inspection, service, and maintenance of PE equipment across 106 public prisons / ServiceSport / Ministry of Justice
In a significant milestone, ServiceSport UK proudly announces that we have been awarded the prestigious Ministry of Justice contract for the inspection, service, and maintenance of PE equipment across 106 public prisons in England and Wales.

This landmark contract not only underscores our commitment to excellence but also highlights our prowess in ensuring the safety and functionality of gym equipment in critical public institutions.

As a leading provider of gym equipment repair and maintenance services, we have built a reputation for quality, reliability, and professionalism over the past 25 years. Our expertise in servicing a wide range of gym equipment, from cardio machines to strength training equipment, has set us apart from others in the industry. With a team of skilled engineers and a customer-centric approach, we have been the preferred choice for many organisations seeking top-tier maintenance solutions for their fitness facilities.

The Ministry of Justice's decision to entrust us with the responsibility of managing gym equipment maintenance in prisons speaks volumes about our organisation’s expertise and capabilities. The contract includes conducting annual inspections of physical training equipment in addition to carrying out any necessary repairs and maintenance across the extensive network of public prisons in England and Wales. This comprehensive scope of work demonstrates the Ministry of Justice's confidence in our ability to ensure the fitness equipment in these critical facilities is in optimal condition to support the well-being and rehabilitation of inmates.

The partnership between ServiceSport UK and the Ministry of Justice is a testament to the importance of maintaining high standards of safety and operational efficiency in prison gym facilities. Properly functioning gym equipment not only fosters a conducive environment for physical fitness and recreation but also contributes to the overall well-being and mental health of inmates. By entrusting us with this crucial task, the Ministry of Justice is prioritising the welfare and rehabilitation opportunities for individuals in the prison system.

Our approach to maintaining gym equipment goes beyond mere repairs and maintenance; it is rooted in a commitment to ensuring the longevity, safety, and performance of the equipment. By conducting thorough inspections, addressing any issues promptly, and implementing preventive maintenance strategies, we will play a vital role in upholding the integrity and functionality of gym equipment across the public prison network.

The award of the Ministry of Justice contract is a testament to our track record of excellence in the fitness equipment maintenance industry. Our established reputation for delivering exceptional service, our focus on quality and safety, and our dedication to customer satisfaction has positioned us as a trusted partner for organisations seeking reliable maintenance solutions.

As we embark on this new chapter of managing gym equipment maintenance in public prisons, we remain committed to upholding the highest standards of service and professionalism across the fitness industry. By leveraging our expertise, technical proficiency, and proactive maintenance approach, we are poised to ensure that the gym facilities in these institutions continue to function at optimal levels, promoting fitness, well-being, and rehabilitation.

In conclusion, the Ministry of Justice contract awarded to us for the inspection, service, and maintenance of gym equipment in public prisons represents a significant milestone for both parties. This partnership underscores our position as a leading provider of fitness equipment maintenance services and highlights our dedication to maintaining safe, functional, and high-quality gym facilities for the benefit of inmates and staff alike. Our commitment to excellence, combined with our proven track record in the industry, makes us the ideal partner for meeting the unique maintenance needs of the Ministry of Justice's prison facilities.

Testimonial
"This is the third year in a row that I have chosen to use ServiceSport (UK) Ltd for our gymnasium requirements. I find the customer services department ruthlessly efficient, and the maintenance team very professional with the way that they operate. Working within a military training environment, it is vital our equipment is in the best condition possible, and ServiceSport (UK) Ltd help us achieve this. Recent embroidery works conducted have really added a wow factor to the gym, turning our run down kit into kit that looks new again."
– Christopher Walsh, MOD
Testimonial
“Having seen some of the amazing work that ServiceSport UK delivers for the Ministry of Defence, we were very impressed with how well the gym equipment looked and performed after their refresh process. It made perfect sense to choose this option. Not only does the equipment look new, it also ticks all the boxes for sustainability and our environmental and social responsibilities.”
– Joanna Seldon, senior proposition manager, Nuffield Health.
