- The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the regulations
Explanation:
Envirocloud were awarded the water hygiene sampling contract, based on costs and quality of documentation compared to previous sampling contractors. The trust also employed Envirocloud to undertake a water hygiene audit at both hospitals. Due to the vacancy of the previous Authorising engineer for the Trust, Envirocloud was given a 3 year water hygiene AE’s contract .
Due to the water hygiene issues at TWH and building projects at MSH, it made sense to issue Envirocloud the consultancy services for these, so that they didn’t conflict if the Trust employed a third party. It was at the time unknown how involved these would be? Additional sampling due to the increase of legionella and pseudomonas has increased the annual sampling costs
