UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Housing 21, a public authority classified as sub-central government, is conducting an open tender for asbestos surveys with an approximate value of £1.8 million, reflecting its growth ambitions. The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with the tender period closing on 10th February 2026. This initiative involves providing asbestos management surveys and refurbishment & demolition services across approximately 300 schemes in the United Kingdom, focusing on both northern and southern regions. The contract spans five years, commencing on 1st May 2026, with the procurement emphasizing both price and quality in bid evaluation, applying a 40:60 weight distribution respectively. The location for the project is nationwide within the UK, and potential contractors must comply with the updated specifications to integrate seamlessly with Housing 21's compliance system, True Compliance. The enquiry period for questions ends on 6th February 2026.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in asbestos removal services, particularly those capable of delivering high-quality service on a nationwide scale. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, providing them an avenue to enhance their portfolios through this high-value, long-term project. Companies with a robust service delivery framework and experience in asbestos management, along with the capability of integrating digital compliance solutions, would likely excel in this bid. The requirement for contractors to bid for both northern and southern regions, albeit appointed for one, ensures diverse participation while supporting substantial business growth through strategic regional coverage.
