Summary of the contracting process

River Clyde Homes procured reactive, ad hoc asbestos surveying, sampling, analytical and remedial services for its housing properties. The requirement covers building surveys, asbestos material sampling, laboratory analysis, air analysis and associated remedial work, carried out under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and other relevant legislation. The buyer is River Clyde Homes, based in Greenock. The service is classified primarily as asbestos removal services, with related building surveying, surveying and survey analysis activities. Work is intended for River Clyde Homes’ properties, requiring a contractor able to respond to varying asbestos-related requirements rather than deliver one fixed project. The successful company could not also be awarded River Clyde Homes’ separate asbestos removal contract.

The procurement has reached the award and contract stage. It used an open procedure, evaluated on price (30%) and quality, including contract management (45%), method statements (15%), community benefits (5%) and Fair Work First (5%); data protection was pass/fail. Environmental Essentials Ltd was awarded the contract on 17 June 2026, and the contract was signed on 29 June 2026. The active contract is valued at £400,000 and has a stated duration of 720 days, with River Clyde Homes able to agree up to two further 12-month extensions. Six bids were received, including four from SMEs, all submitted electronically. Bids had to remain valid for 90 days and be submitted in English. The requirement is identified as recurring in March 2030.

This requirement suits an established asbestos consultancy or specialist contractor with capacity for responsive surveying, sampling, analysis and remedial work across a housing property portfolio. A credible future competitor would need at least five surveyors, two bulk analysts and two air analysts available to deliver the service, with named staff, relevant qualifications and detailed on-site experience. Relevant competence includes BOHS P401–P405, W504, Certificates of Competence in Asbestos and current refresher training. Suppliers should be able to evidence three comparable contracts and two client references, plus a laboratory rated Good or Satisfactory in both AIMS and RICE. Strong bidders would also hold substantial employers’, public liability and professional indemnity insurance, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO/IEC 17020 and 17025 accreditation, health and safety certification, and a current waste carrier licence.
