Summary of the contracting process

South Lanarkshire Council has completed a procurement process titled "Supply, Servicing, Repair and Maintenance of all Air Monitoring Equipment," announced on 7th April 2021. This contract falls within the services category and involves maintaining air quality monitoring equipment as mandated by the Environment Act 1995. The procurement was conducted through a limited tendering method, awarding the contract to ACOEM UK Ltd, the sole distributor for the manufacturer of the required equipment, with a contract value of £350,000. The contract is for a duration of seven years, with a possible extension based on funding from the Scottish Government.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses operating within the environmental services and IT software sectors, particularly those specialising in air quality monitoring equipment and its maintenance. Since ACOEM UK Ltd was the only bidder, it demonstrates a niche market with a lack of competition, indicating that other companies with relevant expertise and accreditation could successfully enter this market. Additionally, as the contract is linked to ongoing statutory obligations, there may be continued demand for similar services in the future.
