Summary of the contracting process

Housing 21, a public authority in Birmingham, has conducted an open procurement process for asbestos survey services across approximately 300 schemes nationwide. The tender, titled "Asbestos Surveys," falls under the services industry category with a focus on asbestos removal. The procurement process covered both the north and south regions, although contracts were awarded based on the highest combined cost and quality submissions for only one region per bidder. The contract, valued at approximately £1.8 million, runs from 1st May 2026 to 30th April 2031, with potential for a five-year extension. The procurement process is now at the award stage as of 6th May 2026.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, especially for SMEs specialising in asbestos management and compliance. The requirement to integrate with Housing 21’s new compliance system, True Compliance, also provides a chance for businesses with technological adaptations to stand out. Airborne Environmental Consultants Ltd and Bradley Environmental Consultants Ltd have been notable suppliers in this process, indicating a competitive landscape that favours businesses with expertise in asbestos survey and removal, as well as the ability to provide nationwide coverage. Businesses adept in balancing cost-efficiency and high-quality service submissions could compete effectively in similar tenders.
