This tender, classified under architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services, is currently in the active procurement stage with an open procedure method. The tender period concludes on 29th June 2021, with the contract period starting from 11th July 2021 and extending until 11th July 2025. Testing will be conducted across various buildings on the university's city centre campus and other locations, including farms and marine facilities in the surrounding areas. This opportunity is particularly well-suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of providing complex compliance services related to LEV systems. Companies specialising in environmental safety, engineering inspections, and maintenance of ventilation systems will find a conducive environment for growth. Engaging with this contract can help businesses leverage specialised skills and expand their service offerings, particularly in the educational sector, thus fostering long-term partnerships with academic institutions. ## Notice Newcastle University own and use multiple Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) systems such as fume hoods, Microbiological Safety Cabinets (MSCs) and numerous, often bespoke, systems including capture hoods and booths. The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations 2002 require LEV systems to undergo a thorough examination and test every 14 months by a competent person. To ensure regulatory compliance the University wishes to engage with a demonstrably competent supplier to assist with the management of our LEV systems by providing thorough examination and tests, fumigation and repair services including the provision of building-wide surveys and action planning. Testing is required in multiple buildings within the city centre campus and outlying sites including, but not limited to, the University farms at Cockle Park and Nafferton and the Dove Marine facility in Cullercoats (See Appendix 1 Campus Map and Appendix 2 Number of LEV). LEV systems are grouped by building but can also be grouped by the Unit (School/Institute/service) that owns and is responsible for the system(s). One building may house systems owned by multiple Units. End user contacts are assigned to each LEV system and this is based on the Unit to which the LEV belongs.
