Summary of the contracting process

Derby City Council is procuring asbestos-related services in the East Midlands, United Kingdom. The requirement is divided into two contracts: Lot 1 covers asbestos removal and remediation services, including the safe removal and treatment of asbestos; Lot 2 covers asbestos analyst services, including technical testing, analysis and consultancy associated with asbestos. The procurement is for services and is classified under CPV 45262660 for asbestos-removal work, with additional classifications for asbestos removal services and technical testing, analysis and consultancy. The contracts support the Council’s current service requirements and may accommodate expanded demand, new areas or additional client groups arising from local government reorganisation.

The procurement has reached tender: Derby City Council invited offers using an open procedure above threshold under the Procurement Act 2023 and Procurement Regulations 2024. Clarification questions were due by 12:00 noon on 24 September 2026; suppliers had to express interest and obtain the documents by 12:00 noon on 14 October 2026; tender returns were due by 12:00 noon on 15 October 2026. Lot 1 has an estimated value of £1,172,000 and an initial contract period from 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2029. Lot 2 is estimated at £2,616,000, initially from 13 February 2027 to 12 February 2029. Each contract may be extended annually for up to three years, giving a maximum five-year period. The published information does not set out an evaluation weighting.

This opportunity suits specialist asbestos contractors able to deliver removal and remediation services, and asbestos analysts able to provide technical testing, analysis and consultancy. Suppliers can bid for the service area matching their operational capability, or for both where they have the necessary breadth. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Contractors should be able to manage public-sector asbestos work across the East Midlands and respond to changing demand, including possible expansion into new areas or client groups during local government reorganisation. Removal and remediation providers need practical asbestos management and treatment capability; analyst providers need the expertise and capacity to carry out reliable asbestos analysis and related consultancy. The contracts are intended to support both established current requirements and potential future increases in service volume.

Notice Title

TD2414 - Asbestos Removal and Remediation Services and Asbestos Analyst Services

Notice Description

Derby City Council (the Council) is undertaking this procurement to establish two contracts: * Lot 1 Asbestos removal and remediation services * Lot 2 Asbestos analyst services The procurement process adopted by the Council is based on the 'Open' tendering procedure as detailed in the Procurement Act 2023 (the "Act") and the Procurement Regulations 2024 (the "Regulations".) For Lot 1 the asbestos removal and remediation services contract, the initial contract period is two years and is estimated to commence on 1st February 2027 and expire on 31st January 2029. For Lot 2 the asbestos analyst services contract, the initial contract period is two years and is estimated to commence on 13th February 2027 and expire on 12th February 2029. For both contracts there will be an option to extend the contract for three (3) years in annual increments, subject to satisfactory performance and business needs. Maximum contract period is five (5) years. Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) is underway in several areas across the country and may result in changes to council structures, service delivery and responsibilities, and geographical coverage during the life of the contract. For this contract it is anticipated that the effects of LGR may lead to an increased service demand or the need to extend provision to new areas or client groups. For Lot 1 the asbestos removal and remediation services contract, bidders should note that the total estimated contract value of PS1,172,000, comprises of two components: i) The core contract value, estimated at PS293,000, based on known current service requirements ii) An additional estimated value of PS879,000 to reflect potential future changes in service scope or volume linked to LGR. For Lot 2 the asbestos analyst services contract, bidders should note that the total estimated contract value of PS2,616,000, comprises of two components: i) The core contract value, estimated at PS654,000, based on known current service requirements ii) An additional estimated value of PS1,962,000 to reflect potential future changes in service scope or volume linked to LGR. These figures are estimations and due to only being in the early stages of the process the Authority cannot give any commitment on these figures but would like to build scope into the Contract should the need arise.
