Summary of the contracting process

Kirklees Council plans a two-lot framework for asbestos consultancy services supporting its corporate landlord and Homes and Neighbourhoods functions. The work is intended to help the council meet its asbestos-related responsibilities. Services across the lots are expected to include asbestos management and refurbishment and demolition surveys, air monitoring and four-stage clearances, bulk sampling and sample analysis, re-inspections, and reactive call-outs. The scope also includes training, expert witness services, access equipment where needed to carry out work, and rates for individual practitioners. The services are for council properties and homes in the Kirklees area. Suppliers may be interested in one or both lots, depending on their ability to serve the relevant council function.

This is at the planning stage: Kirklees Council is undertaking preliminary market engagement before launching the procurement, and no invitation to tender is included at this stage. The buyer expects to use an open procedure to establish a framework agreement. It is divided into two lots, for the Corporate Landlord and Homes and Neighbourhoods functions. The estimated value is £2.4 million excluding VAT (£2.88 million including VAT). The planned contract period is 1 April 2027 to 30 March 2029, with a possible extension to 30 March 2031. The buyer’s engagement milestone is scheduled to run until 6 November 2026. The data gives no evaluation basis or participation requirements to report at this planning stage.

The work is most relevant to asbestos consultancy firms able to deliver a range of property-related services, from management and refurbishment or demolition surveys to air monitoring, clearances, sampling and re-inspections. Suppliers with reactive response capacity, access to suitable equipment and practitioners who can be priced individually may also fit the anticipated scope. Training and expert witness services are included, so firms offering those capabilities could be relevant alongside technical survey providers. The framework is split between two council functions, allowing suppliers to consider which part of the estate their experience best matches. Small and medium-sized businesses are identified as suitable for the Corporate Landlord lot. The stated scope does not identify particular accreditations or minimum experience requirements. This is a preparation-stage process, not an invitation to bid now.
