Opportunity overview

The contract is for the provision of local site operator services to the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames air quality monitoring sites (KT4, KT5 and KT6) and the London Borough of Sutton air quality monitoring sites (ST4, ST5, ST6, ST8). The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames and the London Borough of Sutton Councils have merged services to create a Shared Environment Service. The provision of local site operator services will, therefore, be required to cover the automated air quality monitoring sites across both boroughs. In order to review and assess air quality as part of the duties under London Local Air Quality Management, a number of air quality monitoring stations are operated throughout both boroughs. There is a requirement for attending the sites routinely once per fortnight for the purpose of carrying out general Quality Assurance / Quality Control duties (with additional ad hoc visits as required). The contract will need to represent value for money for the Council while offering a high quality service to both the client and the data management provider. The operation of an air quality monitoring network is a measure that is included in both of the boroughs’ Air Quality Action Plans. The collection of reliable data helps to inform the effectiveness of the other measures that are being implemented to improve air quality across the boroughs and the data is included within the statutorily required Annual Status Report

Criteria

Criterion 1
Description
The Council wishes to determine whether the wage rates to be paid to those employees of the winning bidder who will be engaged in the provision of the services and which have been allowed for within the winning bid, will meet or exceed the current published Living Wage rates. When submitting bids, Tenderers must take this into consideration and include within their bid submissions the following information: Details of actual wage rates and an indication of whether these meet or exceed current rates for Living Wage. Tenderers must note that it is the intention of the Council not to contract any supplier who does not comply with the Living Wage. The evaluation of tenders, so far as it is affected by wage rates, will be confined to the actual wage rates provided for in the tender. If the bid information discloses that the bid DOES NOT allow for the Tenderer’s employees to be paid wage rates which meet or exceed the current published Living Wage rates, the bid will be disqualified. 2.
