PLEASE READ DOCUMENT ONE FIRST.

Citizen is seeking to appoint multiple service providers to work with us to provide our required Asbestos Surveying Services.

The service will be predominantly provided to occupied domestic premises and will in the main be highly reactive and will be made available on 24 X 7 X 365 days a year basis. However, you should note that Citizen is unable to guarantee the level or frequency of instructions.

The reactive instructions are generated via a contact centre where appointments are raised which the contractor will be expected to attend. It is expected that many will be classed as emergencies will be completed within 24hrs of the call and all other work must be completed within 10 working days.
