UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust has completed the procurement process for the asbestos removal services at Baldwin Lodge. The contract, titled "Baldwin Lodge Asbestos Removal," falls under the services category and is located in Leicester, United Kingdom, specifically at the Leicester Royal Infirmary, with an expected completion date of 30th April 2026. The procurement method utilised was a direct approach, avoiding competition due to the below-threshold criteria and the necessity to extend the existing appointment with Westcross Environmental Services Ltd. The contract is valued at £60,500, excluding taxes, and was officially signed on 30th March 2026.

This tender presents a growth opportunity particularly for businesses in the asbestos removal industry, although, in this instance, the direct procurement method limits new entries. Westcross Environmental Services Ltd, being a large-scale supplier, was awarded the contract reflecting a lack of competitive process due to the nature of the works required, which ensures continuity and indemnity protection for the incumbent design specifications. Businesses specialising in environmental health services, particularly those capable of handling hazardous waste and materials, would find similar procurements appealing. The contract underscores the potential for suppliers who can offer niche expertise in specialist works, such as asbestos attention where continuity and specific safety standards are paramount.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Baldwin Lodge Asbestos Removal

Notice Description

Baldwin Lodge - specialist works Asbestos removal and disposal - roof void, walls celing and pipework = PS52580 Asbestos removal and disposal - floor tiles, cement panels, switch gear, toilet cistern = PS7920 Proposal quotes - dated 2/2/26 and 12/2/26 This appointment is an extension of an existing appointment for design for which the supplier carries liability. Whilst it would be possible to compete this, it will not deliver value to UHL as a new supplier would need to indemnify the incumbent design and it also puts UHL at risk of having insufficient protection against design defects.
