Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council procured specialist water hygiene services for legionella monitoring and remedial works, including travel time. The requirement covers approximately 33 Housing Revenue Account sites managed by the Council’s Housing Standards Team. These comprise hostels, independent living schemes and community centres in the Richmond, Harrogate and Selby areas of North Yorkshire. The work is intended to support compliance with legionella control requirements across Council establishments. It is a services contract for monitoring and control activities, covering the assessment, monitoring and remediation of water systems associated with these public buildings. The buying organisation is The North Yorkshire Council, based in Northallerton. The requirement is relevant to contractors specialising in water hygiene, legionella risk control, monitoring and associated remedial works across a geographically dispersed public-sector estate.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Rock Compliance Limited on 3 September 2026. The awarded value is £140,000. The awarded contract runs from 10 September 2026 to 9 September 2028. The original contract was for a minimum two-year period, with options for two further 12-month extensions. The tender closed on 4 August 2026 at 12:00. It used a selective procurement route and a restricted procedure, run as a further competition under the ESPO Framework 198_25, Water Systems, Lot 2: Water Hygiene Monitoring Services. The opportunity was evaluated as a specialist monitoring and control service. The procurement was identified as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprise organisations.

This award indicates established demand from North Yorkshire Council for specialist legionella monitoring and remedial work across a sizeable, varied property portfolio. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable water hygiene expertise, practical capability in legionella monitoring and control, and the ability to carry out remedial works in hostels, independent living schemes and community centres. Operational capacity matters because the sites are spread across Richmond, Harrogate and Selby, and the requirement includes travel time. Suppliers should also be able to support public-sector compliance programmes consistently across multiple establishments rather than provide a single-site service. The procurement route shows that access to the relevant ESPO water systems framework, particularly its water hygiene monitoring services lot, is commercially important for competing through a similar further competition.
