Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Barking and Dagenham is procuring demolition works at the Gascoigne Estate in Barking, London. The requirement covers the phased demolition of five residential tower blocks: Crispe House, Fiske Court, Oban House, Tasker House and Earlsdown House. It also includes site management, health and safety controls, environmental controls, asbestos management and related enabling works. The works support the estate’s wider regeneration programme, estate renewal, future development opportunities and improved housing and place-making outcomes. This is a substantial demolition, site preparation and clearance project, requiring coordinated management of demolition activities and associated environmental, safety and logistical obligations across the estate.

The procurement has reached tender: the council invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission allowed in English. It is a single lot and has an estimated gross value of £6,000,000 including taxes. The deadline for clarification enquiries was 1 September 2026 at 5:00pm, and the tender submission deadline was 17 September 2026 at 1:00pm. The planned evaluation and award period ends on 28 September 2026. The contract period is from 1 October 2026 to 1 July 2027. Tenders are evaluated on price at 60%, quality at 30% and social value at 10%. Quality covers methodology, risk management, logistics, sequencing, health and safety, environmental and sustainability measures, stakeholder engagement and delivery approach.

The requirement suits an established demolition contractor able to act as the single entity responsible for managing a large, complex project, while creating opportunities for smaller suppliers in the supply chain. Conditions of participation require ISO 45001 or equivalent for occupational health and safety, ISO 14001 or equivalent for environmental management, NFDC membership or equivalent, and a workforce certified under the Construction Certification Scheme for Demolition, or equivalent. Bidders must demonstrate legal and financial capacity, suitable insurance arrangements and organisational and workforce competence. Relevant experience must include two or three comparable demolition projects completed within the last five years, at a similar scale or technical complexity, supported by client references. SMEs and VCSEs are considered suitable.
