Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

South Derbyshire District Council procured asbestos removal services from its council-owned properties. The requirement covers the identification, removal and associated handling of asbestos-containing materials as required across the council’s property portfolio. The work is delivered in South Derbyshire, with the council based in Swadlincote. This is a public-sector building maintenance and hazardous-materials remediation requirement, rather than a general construction or cleaning contract. The procurement was conducted through the EEM Framework, indicating that the council used an established specialist supply route. The selected supplier is European Asbestos Services Ltd, a large asbestos services business. The requirement is relevant to contractors with the technical competence, trained workforce, compliant processes and operational capacity to remove asbestos safely from publicly owned buildings.

The procurement has completed and the contract is active. South Derbyshire District Council used a limited mini-competition from the EEM Framework, under an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. The contract was signed on 2 February 2026 for £400,000. European Asbestos Services Ltd was awarded the asbestos removal contract. The procurement was evaluated on quality and price, weighted 60% and 40% respectively. Seven bids were received, including six from small or medium-sized enterprises, and all seven were submitted electronically. The recorded procurement lot has a cancelled status, although the associated award and contract are recorded as active. The available outcome data identifies one selected supplier and does not provide a contract end date or stated duration.

This procurement demonstrates established demand from South Derbyshire District Council for specialist asbestos removal across its council-owned property estate, with a requirement large enough to support a substantial single contract. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable asbestos surveying and removal capability, suitably trained and qualified operatives, robust health and safety controls, licensed or otherwise compliant waste handling arrangements, and the capacity to work across multiple public buildings. Experience of delivering safely for local authorities or other public-sector property owners would strengthen a bid. Suppliers should also be able to operate through an established framework route and submit electronically. The evaluation places greater emphasis on quality than price, so evidence of safe delivery, method statements, service management, reliable mobilisation and effective risk control would be important alongside competitive pricing.
