In the event that the top ranked tenderer is unable to fulfil the job it will then be offered to the 2nd ranked tenderer. In the event that any single asbestos removal request is likely to exceed the 25k limit or requires any specialised removal IE; requiring large scale scaffoldings or other specialised equipment in regard to the standard HSE notification will be subject to a further competition. All contractors in Lots 1 & 2 will be invited to price for this removal work and will be required to produce a Risk Assessment and Method Statement specific to the requested asbestos removal work, this will include HSE documentation (ASB5) for Licenced Asbestos Removal work."
