LGSS, one of the largest public sector shared services ventures of its kind in the UK, has gone out to tender with a framework contract for legionella and water hygiene services potentially worth upto £5 million.
LGSS, which is wholly owned by Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire County Councils and Milton Keynes Council, is looking to appoint up to 3 providers to the framework, which will be for an initial period of 3 years with option to extend for a further year.
