Summary of the contracting process

Magenta Living, a public undertaking based in Birkenhead, United Kingdom (UKD74), has awarded a contract under their framework ML2025/004 for Asbestos Surveying, Sampling, Air Monitoring, Consultancy, and Training. The procurement process involved an open procedure, culminating in an active status award to three small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) - Pennington Choices Limited, Environtec Limited, and North Star Environmental Ltd. The procurement falls within the services industry category, focusing on building surveying and asbestos removal services across regions in the UK, including UKD. This framework agreement, valued at a gross amount of £1,200,000, commenced on 4 April 2026 and will continue until 4 April 2028. The tender was initially established in October 2025 and has since passed through various stages including planning, tender, and award.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specializing in environmental consultancy and asbestos management services. SMEs are especially well-placed to benefit from this framework, given its structured ranking system, which allows the top-ranked supplier to access work opportunities directly. The closed-framework nature ensures that the commission is distributed among pre-selected suppliers, ensuring consistent business growth and opportunities. Companies with robust operational capacities, technical expertise in building surveying, and a proven track record in asbestos-related services can leverage this platform to enhance their portfolios by engaging in long-term commitments with a reputable public sector organization like Magenta Living.
