Air Quality Management Tenders and Contracts

Air quality management tenders cover contracts for monitoring, modelling and assessing air quality, along with maintaining monitoring stations and equipment and developing air quality strategies and action plans.

Air quality management studies include source apportionment, dispersion modelling, air quality strategy development and assessments linked to planning and transport schemes.

Stotles brings together air quality management tenders and contracts from 100+ portals into one search, so you do not have to check each portal separately, and you can set alerts for new opportunities across the UK and Ireland.

If you want to search the government portals directly, Find a Tender carries higher-value contracts across the UK and Contracts Finder carries lower-value contracts in England. Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales and eTendersNI cover Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, Ireland's eTenders covers Irish public bodies, and many councils, NHS bodies and housing associations publish on their own e-tendering portals such as ProContract. Councils often run air quality monitoring and modelling through shared frameworks or small quotations, so smaller jobs appear only on Contracts Finder or a council's own portal.

Air quality tenders are scored on technical approach, data quality and accreditation, equipment and calibration, reporting and price. Councils often let monitoring and modelling as multi-lot frameworks, so a framework place opens up repeat work.

Monitoring and laboratory analysis are usually expected to be accredited by UKAS to ISO/IEC 17025, and work for councils follows the Local Air Quality Management technical guidance. Tenders usually set minimum insurance cover, check financial standing and ask for evidence of similar contracts at selection stage. Under the Procurement Act 2023, suppliers can be excluded for certain criminal convictions, insolvency or failure to pay tax.

Both. Some notices are single consultancy or maintenance contracts, while others are call-offs from framework agreements covering monitoring and associated services.

Local councils are regular buyers, sometimes working through shared environmental services with neighbouring authorities. National transport and rail bodies also commission this work for their own networks.

Read local air quality action plans, annual status reports, planning conditions and clean air programmes, which show work coming due ahead of a notice. On Stotles you can track those signals and the councils behind them, then follow a notice from pre-tender through to award.

Air quality notices carry 90731400 (Air pollution monitoring or measurement services), 90731100 (Air quality management) and 38344000 (Pollution-monitoring devices). Many council notices for station servicing carry no CPV code.
