Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council procured a water hygiene monitoring programme for its properties in Dundee. The requirement covers inspection, monitoring, servicing, testing, certification and reporting for water hygiene, supporting health and safety compliance. It was divided into two lots with the same scope: Water Hygiene Monitoring Lot 1 and Water Hygiene Monitoring Lot 2. The procurement falls within health and safety services (CPV 71317200). The work concerns various council properties, with Dundee as the delivery location. Dundee City Council is the buyer and contracting authority. The programme also requires electronic ordering, electronic payment and allows electronic invoicing, indicating a digitally managed service relationship.

This completed open procedure was evaluated on price and quality, with price weighted at 40%. Quality covered contract resourcing, development, timescales, disruption, emergency call-outs, programme of works, customer care, feedback, continuous improvement, community benefits and fair work. The tender deadline and bid opening were 13 May 2026 at 12:00, following an amendment that extended the original 6 May deadline; bids had to remain valid for 120 days. The estimated tender value was £870,000. Dalkia Operations Ltd was awarded both lots on 22 July 2026. Lot 1 was contracted at £940,307.01 and Lot 2 at £623,159.93, both signed on 22 July 2026. Each lot has a 1,080-day period, with a further two-year renewal option after two years.

This procurement demonstrates recurring demand from Dundee City Council for a substantial, property-wide water hygiene compliance service. A credible future competitor would need to deliver scheduled inspections and monitoring alongside servicing, testing, certification and clear reporting across multiple council properties. The evaluation shows that dependable resourcing, development and customer care matter, as do achievable timescales, low disruption, responsive emergency call-outs and a structured programme of works. Suppliers should be able to evidence continuous improvement, feedback processes, community benefits and fair work practices. Financial strength was tested through an Equifax score of at least 35. Bidders and relevant subcontractors also needed employer’s liability and public liability insurance of £10 million per claim.
