Vicious competition in elevator maintenance: for bidding projects with a budget of more than 420000 yuan, less than 200000 yuan won the bid!
Recently, the bidding for an elevator maintenance project in a certain place in Jiangsu once again demonstrated the fierce competition in our elevator industry, even to the point of tragedy. FinallyThe winning price was reduced to 199500 yuan,Less than half the price budgeted for the tender.The maintenance premium is an average of 1500 yuan/set, that is, an average of 125 yuan/month/set.
With such a low maintenance premium, the safety of maintenance elevators is worrying.
The project has 133 elevators, 2 with 7-storey stations, 5 with 8-storey stations, 8 with 9-storey stations, 48 with 11-storey stations, 40 with 15-storey stations, 12 with 17-storey stations and 18 with 19-storey stations. The speed is 1 m/s, 1.5 m/s and 1.75 m/s, and there are 3 brand elevators.
The budget amount of the maintenance premium for this project is 425600 yuan/year. If you win the bid at this price, the one-year maintenance premium will also be about 3000 yuan/year. The price is acceptable. But the final bid was less than 200000, isn't it too surprising?
Low price competition, pit yourself, pit peers, why bother?
Xinhuanet, Guangzhou, September 24 (Reporter Zhou Qiang) The frequent incidents of elevator injuries and trapped people have aroused social concern. Experts pointed out that the elevator operation safety, three points by quality, seven points by installation and maintenance. However, excessive competition in the elevator maintenance market has caused some maintenance companies to have to be shoddy in order to survive, and the maintenance quality has declined. In the long run, how to protect the elevator safety?
Vicious competition in the industry, squeezing maintenance costs
It is not easy to get this 125 yuan. Party A has also set up some assessment items, which are assessed every month,100 is divided into full marks, 95 points and above qualified, at this time can get the full premium. If it is less than 95 points, 0.5 of the maintenance will be deducted for every 1 point lower.
Note that this price also requires the maintenance company to bear the elevator parts within 1000 yuan. The bidding documents also stipulate that if the parts are bought by Party A itself, the maintenance company will replace them free of charge. If the parts purchased by the maintenance company require a 2-year warranty, the 2-year warranty will be recalculated if it is broken and replaced within 2 years.
Five certified personnel are required to operate and call for repair 24 hours a day. If someone is trapped in the elevator, they must be released within 15 minutes of working hours. 30 minutes of non-working time to rescue trapped people.
If the annual inspection fee is high, the speed limiter test fee once every 2 years and the load test fee once every 5 years shall be borne by Party A separately.
Five licensed personnel, one person's annual salary and social security expenses should also be 60000, so that a maintenance worker can only get more than 4000 a month's salary, which is not high. In this way, the cost of five workers will be 300000 in a year, which does not include taxes and fees, and does not include other operating costs of the company, such as office rent, water and electricity, staff training and other expenses, but the winning price is only 199500 yuan. Look, how does this boss make money?
Price is a double-edged sword, can hurt people, can also hurt themselves. Grabbing other people's orders is to cut off one's own path. If you spend your mind and energy on the price war, how can you have the time and money to improve the quality? If you break away from the blind competition and expansion of quality, you will end up with a dead end. Enterprises that take orders at low prices only value immediate interests, and seemingly compelled individual choices are endangering the healthy development of the industry as a whole, and the end is bound to kill their peers, tire themselves and destroy the market.
There is a jargon called "buy never sell fine". In the various maintenance companies to seize the market, to fight at the same time, reduce costs, increase revenue has become a must. According to people familiar with the matter, in order to make profits, some maintenance companies have chosen to reduce the frequency of maintenance. For example, maintenance once every half month is changed to once every month or once every quarter. Even if maintenance is not usually done, workers will only deal with accidents. According to the standard, a worker usually manages 25 elevators. In order to reduce labor costs, one person manages 40 to 50 elevators, some even up to 70 or 80, as long as there are no accidents. Accidents are also a problem for workers. All these, the price paid is that the elevator can not be maintained in time, and even long-term "sick" work, on the one hand, the personnel ride is risky, on the other hand, the life of the elevator is greatly shortened.
The price of elevator maintenance is getting lower and lower, and the accumulated safety risks will become greater and greater. The elevator as a special equipment, has a certain degree of danger, once the accident, easy to cause personal injury. The author believes that relevant departments and industry associations should scientifically predict risks with a forward-looking perspective, correct market failures, scientifically guide the market, and severely crack down on and punish vicious competition.Maintenance quality decline, how to protect the elevator safety?
