Summary of the contracting process

Adra (Tai) Cyf, a Welsh housing organisation based in Bangor, is procuring a framework for planned and reactive asbestos services. The requirement is divided between asbestos surveying services and asbestos removal works, covering the inspection, sampling, testing and safe removal of asbestos associated with its properties and residents’ safety. Surveying includes building survey work, while the removal lot covers planned and reactive removal activities. Delivery is across Welsh locations. The framework is intended for service providers able to deliver a full range of compliant asbestos services and works under the tender documents. Suppliers may apply for one lot only: surveying or removal. The procurement is categorised primarily as services, with works also included for the removal lot.

The process has reached tender: Adra invited offers through an open procedure for a closed framework agreement. Questions had to be submitted by 2 October 2026 at 17:00, and tenders by 9 October 2026 at 10:00. Evaluation was due to conclude by 16 November 2026. Both lots run from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2030; Lot 1 includes a renewal provision. The estimated value is £500,000 excluding VAT, or £600,000 including VAT, for each lot. Price and quality each carry 50% of the score. Up to three providers are expected to be appointed for surveying and up to five for removals, based on the highest overall scores. Each supplier may bid for and be awarded one lot only.

This opportunity suits established asbestos specialists able to provide either surveying or removal services across Wales, with the operational capacity to respond to both planned and reactive requirements. For surveying, relevant providers should be able to employ suitably experienced in-house surveyors and manage sampling and testing, either through their own laboratory or a documented external testing arrangement. The preliminary requirements also identify UKAS accreditation to ISO 17020 and ISO 17025, insurance cover, relevant experience and the ability to achieve a three-day sampling turnaround as important areas for bidders to address. Removal contractors should have the competence, resources and compliant working practices needed for asbestos removal works. Small and medium-sized businesses are identified as suitable participants.
