Asbestos Framework - AWARD

The Authority has several properties that contain Asbestos and to meet with the Control of Asbestos regulations 2012 we need to ensure that we have a framework in place as the Authority is the duty holder and therefore responsible for the on-going management of Asbestos across the Estate.

The framework will be divided into two lots:

Lot 1 Asbestos Surveys and Consultancy

Lot 2 Asbestos Removal

This Framework is open initially for use by West Northamptonshire Council.

By way of access agreement this framework is also open to other Authorities including:

? new West Northampton (WNC) customers seeking to utilise WNC frameworks on an independent third-party basis including:

? any city, district, borough or other local authority within the counties of any WNC partner.

? any companies or organisations set up by participants in WNC;

? any school, academy, university or other educational establishment within the counties of any WNC partner authority; and

? any Public Body outlined in either Part I or Part II of the Local Authorities (Goods and Services) (Public Bodies) Order 1972. Details of these can be found at http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1972/853/made.
