Cambridgeshire County Council (The Authority) wishes to appoint a framework of 6

contractors to provide Asbestos Surveying including in-house air monitoring, analytical

services and Consultancy Services across a variety of properties.

To comply with this requirement the Authority is looking to set-up a framework agreement

with 6 retained consultancies to:

include Corporate Offices, Domestic Properties, Farms, Older People Homes, Care Homes,

Children Centres, Schools and other buildings and ad-hoc requirements as required.

This Framework Agreement is open to, and may be used by all local government services in

Cambridgeshire, which includes:

including the Combined Authority; Greater Cambridge partnership etc.

any companies or organisations set up by the Authority and/or PCC.

partners and other organisations delegating services and or functions to the Authority

Potential Providers are asked to note that for any Cambridgeshire County Council call-off

contract the provider could be required to deliver across a variety of properties primarily but

not limited to within the geographical boundaries of Cambridgeshire as the lead authority for

the framework but also within the boundaries of Northamptonshire, and Bedfordshire, Essex

and also to schools in London where Cambridgeshire County Council currently provides

these type of services to Schools and Local Authority Clients.

It is difficult to predict the exact value of this contract as the Authority’s requirements are

likely to vary over the Framework Agreement term, but it is estimated that the total value will

not be less than £100,000 or greater than £500,000 depending on the number of bodies

access the Framework Agreement. The estimated spend figure for this framework is based

on the potential usage for those expressing an interest but allowing sufficient spend should

other eligible parties decide to utilise the framework.

The Authority proposes to enter into a Framework Contract for an initial period of 36

months, with an option to extend for 12 months, making 48 months in total. The anticipated

contract commencement date is 1st March 2023
