Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council has recently completed a procurement process to appoint Integrated Water Services Limited for a programme of legionella monitoring and risk re-assessment services. The contract, initiated through a mini-competition under the ESPO Framework 198_25, focuses on the council's corporate and housing property estates in the UKE11 region. Categorised under 'Monitoring and control services' (CPV code 71700000), this contract represents a significant investment in health and safety, with a potential total spend exceeding £1.7 million over a 3-year base period, with a possible extension of up to 24 months. The procurement method used was the 'selective' or 'restricted procedure', which included quality and price as award criteria, each weighted at 50%. The contract was formally signed on 18th June 2025, marking the transition into the award stage.

This procurement opportunity presents substantial business growth potential, particularly for organisations specialising in technical testing, analysis, consultancy on water pollution, and health and safety services. It is an attractive venture for large enterprises, as demonstrated by the selection of Integrated Water Services, a large supplier. Businesses capable of delivering high-quality monitoring and control services and competing on price would find this type of tender advantageous. Additionally, organisations involved in water hygiene and risk management could leverage similar opportunities through the ESPO framework, which supports participation in large-scale and high-value service contracts.
