## Description
Asbestos Sampling Torus directly employ our own internal Asbetsos Team are currently completing asbestos surveys on all repair, responsive repair, void and scheme works and require accredited testing service across our heartlands. The Asbestos Team require access to a UKAS accredited Asbestos testing service. Our requirement is for approximately 1500 samples per month. We would expect a turnaround time of 24-48 hours. Location: Our strong preference is for the preferred supplier to be located within/close nearby our Heartlands (Liverpool, St Helens and Warrington), or have a facility to provide drop off points in that area. Please note, that we currently do not want to use any postal services for samples. Previous procurements projects have shown a small local market for this requirement. One of the main aims of this process is to try to identify any further local suppliers and opportunities in the market prior to a planned procurement process.
