Summary of the contracting process

Shropshire Towns and Rural Housing bought specialist Legionella control services for its housing properties. The work covers inspection, monitoring, management and control of Legionella bacteria in water systems, with the aim of maintaining compliance with health, safety and environmental legislation and guidance. The service includes Legionella risk assessments, routine monitoring and sampling, temperature checks, cleaning and disinfection, remedial works, tank inspections and tank cleaning. The supplier must also produce and maintain compliant records and reports. This is a technical compliance and water-safety service, combining inspection, testing, consultancy and remedial activity. The associated classifications include technical inspection and testing, water-supply and wastewater consultancy, health and safety services, and water-pollution-related services.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to HSL Compliance Limited, an SME. It used a below-threshold procurement route, with the method recorded as unknown, and comprised one completed lot. The contract was signed on 7 July 2026 and runs from 13 July 2026 to 12 July 2029. It may be extended at the contracting authority’s discretion, based on supplier performance, up to 12 July 2031. The awarded contract value is £125,000 excluding VAT, or £150,000 including VAT. The contract is active. The requirement was evaluated through the completed procurement process, but the available outcome does not state the award criteria or weighting. The buyer is Shropshire Towns and Rural Housing.

This requirement demonstrates recurring demand from a social housing provider for end-to-end Legionella and domestic water-system compliance. A credible competitor would need practical capability in risk assessment, sampling, laboratory or technical testing coordination, temperature monitoring, tank inspection and cleaning, water-system cleaning and disinfection, and remedial works. It would also need to manage accurate compliance records, reports and ongoing monitoring across housing properties. Knowledge of the Health and Safety Executive’s Approved Code of Practice L8 and guidance document HSG274 is central to the service, alongside the ability to apply relevant health, safety and environmental requirements. Suppliers combining competent technical staff, responsive field operations, reliable reporting and demonstrable performance in housing or other managed-property environments would be well placed for comparable future requirements from this buyer.
