Summary of the contracting process

Lincolnshire Community Health Services NHS Trust procured an authorising engineer for asbestos services. The requirement is for specialist engineering oversight and assurance relating to asbestos for the Trust. Delivery is associated with Lincoln, Lincolnshire, based on the stated delivery postcode. The service is for a healthcare organisation and concerns asbestos management rather than general engineering support. The contracting process names the Trust as the buyer and TETRA TECH LIMITED as the selected supplier. This describes a defined professional services requirement for organisations with relevant asbestos engineering expertise, rather than the supply of goods or construction works.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to TETRA TECH LIMITED. The award date was 24 September 2026 and the awarded value is £87,920.51. The contract period runs from 7 October 2026 to 6 April 2032; this maximum period includes an extension option, which the Trust is not guaranteed to take up. The initial estimated value was £29,324.96, with an upper estimated value of £87,920.51. The Trust used a selective procedure to call off the requirement from a framework agreement. The stated tender submission deadline was 13 May 2026 at 12 noon. The procurement was categorised as services, and suitability for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises was marked false. No evaluation criteria are recorded in the process details.

This award shows that Lincolnshire Community Health Services NHS Trust buys dedicated authorising engineer services for asbestos through a framework call-off, with a requirement extending across a substantial contract period and an optional extension. A credible competitor when this specific service is next considered would need demonstrable expertise in asbestos engineering and the ability to provide the oversight and assurance expected by an NHS community health services provider. The Trust selected a large supplier, and the procurement was not marked as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that suppliers should assess whether they can meet the scale and delivery expectations of this arrangement. Relevant experience serving healthcare estates and the capacity to sustain specialist support across multiple years would be commercially pertinent.
