Our offices in Letchworth and Gatwick will be central to servicing the requirement on this framework with more than 40 BOHS qualified asbestos surveyors and analysts dedicated to covering the county. 

Our asbestos Inspection and Testing will be supported by our Operational Support and Laboratory Services team based in Gateshead, which includes in excess of 50 administrators who are dedicated to analysing bulk samples, processing survey data, carrying out quality control and annotating site and floor plans.

Our laboratory is the largest UKAS ISO 17025 accredited asbestos testing laboratory in the UK which can process up to 2,000 samples a day and is staffed by over 35 BOHS P401 qualified laboratory analysts. This is an unrivalled capacity and means we can deliver large long term survey schemes as well as large one-off projects simultaneously without straining our site or support resources.

All our services will be delivered through our Nexgen Management System. This is a bespoke management system created for Lucion and will be used by our management, site and laboratory teams for real-time data entry and sharing of information on a 100% digital platform that is accessible from any internet-capable device.
