ASKAMS has gained a place on the framework for Scotland Excel, which is fantastic for news for the business having only established ourselves in the country last year.
We opened an office in Glasgow at the end of 2014 to meet asbestos management needs in Scotland and will open an office in Edinburgh next month, where we will establish a Scottish laboratory team of compliance specialists including technical experts and lab analysts.
Scotland Excel is the Centre of Procurement Expertise for Scotland’s local government sector, working collaboratively with members and suppliers to raise procurement standards, secure best value for customers and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of public sector procurement in Scotland.
ASKAMS’s managing director, Stewart McNicholl said: “Our place on the Scotland Excel framework is very important to us, a new organisation in the country. In addition to this, we know we ranked very highly out of the 11 suppliers vying to make the framework, which is testament to our ability to be able to deliver a quality service at value for money.
“On a more personal note, I’m made up to be spending more time in Scotland where I spent seven years of my life living and working.”
