One of Scotland’s largest Local Authorities contacted DAMM Environmental to clean approximately 30,000 gullies. The original tender specification requested that we clean every gully twice a year, every year. When our DAMM team assessed the gullies, we determined that not all gullies required cleaning twice a year, and that others within the cycle required more than 2 cleans per annum. Rather than constraining our clients via the initial terms of the tender, DAMM Environmental worked with the council to develop a plan for a proactive and bespoke approach to the gully cleaning cycle.
