Summary of the contracting process

Renfrewshire Council appointed a contractor to provide asbestos surveying and analytical services for external areas of domestic and non-domestic properties across Renfrewshire. The work covers identifying and assessing asbestos-containing materials through surveys and analysis, supporting the council’s management of asbestos risks in its housing and other property portfolio. This is a specialist environmental and building-safety service, classified under CPV 90650000. The buyer is Renfrewshire Council, based in Paisley. The requirement is delivered within the Renfrewshire area and relates specifically to external asbestos-related work rather than general construction, maintenance or unrelated analytical services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Renfrewshire Council used a limited procedure with a direct award, without prior publication of a call for competition, through the Scotland Excel Asbestos Related Works and Services Framework. The single lot was awarded to SOCOTEC Asbestos Limited, and one electronic bid was recorded, from an SME. The resulting contract is active, valued at £170,000, and was signed on 8 May 2025. The award covered asbestos surveying and analytical services for external areas in Renfrewshire. The direct award route means the opportunity was competed through an established framework rather than as an openly advertised tender.

This award demonstrates established demand from Renfrewshire Council for specialist asbestos surveying and analytical capability covering both domestic and non-domestic properties, with a particular focus on external areas. A credible future competitor would need suitably qualified personnel, reliable asbestos survey and sampling processes, and the technical ability to arrange or perform accurate analysis and reporting. It would also need capacity to work across a council property portfolio in Renfrewshire and to manage safety-sensitive work professionally. The procurement was made through the Scotland Excel Asbestos Related Works and Services Framework, so suppliers seeking similar work would need to understand that framework route and meet its requirements for asbestos-related services.
