Notice Information
Notice Title
Gas assessment and certification services
Notice Description
Our previous supplier (SMB college group) was struggling to fulfil their obligations due to staffing issues. During our last meeting they said that this was unlikely to improve until the end of 2025 start of 2026. Due to our legal obligations all our gas qualified staff need to hold the relevant gas qualifications and we want to award it to Leicester College who came second in the initial tender.
