UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Paradigm Housing Group commissioned a single supplier to provide asbestos surveying, analysis and air monitoring across its Settle property portfolio. The requirement covers technical inspection and testing services associated with identifying asbestos, analysing samples and monitoring air quality. It is a services contract for housing assets managed by the group, with delivery focused on the Settle portfolio. The appointed supplier is Vintec Laboratories Ltd, a Manchester-based small and medium-sized enterprise. The work is relevant to asbestos consultancy, environmental testing laboratories, occupational or building health monitoring providers, and specialist contractors able to combine surveying with laboratory analysis and air monitoring for residential property portfolios.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Vintec Laboratories Ltd through a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was completed and one supplier was appointed. The award was made on 1 June 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. Its initial term runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2027, with an option for a one-year extension to a maximum end date of 31 May 2028. The contract value is £165,000 excluding VAT, or £198,000 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The published description identifies the requirement as asbestos surveying, analysis and air monitoring services.

This procurement shows a housing provider buying an integrated asbestos compliance and testing service rather than a single isolated activity. Competitors seeking similar work would need practical capability in asbestos surveys, sample analysis and air monitoring, with the systems and technical competence to deliver these services consistently across a property portfolio. Capacity to coordinate site work, laboratory testing and reporting would be important, as would experience working in occupied or managed housing environments where safety, clear records and reliable response arrangements matter. Vintec Laboratories Ltd’s appointment demonstrates that a specialist SME can serve this type of requirement. Firms with complementary surveying, laboratory or monitoring capability may also view the requirement as relevant for future housing-sector opportunities.
