Asbestos surveying, sampling, analysis and air monitoring service on a responsive, planned and emergency basis within domestic and non-domestic premises throughout East Ayrshire. Refer to tender documents for anticipated annual scope of contract.
The Council has 2 separate contracts relating to Asbestos, one for Asbestos Removal and one for Asbestos Surveying, Sampling, Analysis & Monitoring (ie this tender exercise). It is the Council's view that there would be a conflict of interest for the same organisation (Contractor) to provide the service for both contracts, therefore the incumbent Contractor (or any organisation within their group) currently providing the Asbestos Removal service cannot be awarded this contract. The same will apply to the Contractor (or any organisation within their group) who is successful in this tender exercise that they cannot be awarded the contract for Asbestos Removal when tendered in the future.
