UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Westminster City Council procured asbestos removal services and remedial works across its housing and wider property portfolio. The work is intended to help the council meet its statutory duties under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. This is a property compliance and specialist asbestos remediation requirement delivered for council-owned or managed buildings in Westminster. The buying organisation is Westminster City Council, a sub-central public authority. The requirement covers services rather than goods or construction works in the broader sense, with the practical focus on identifying and carrying out asbestos remedial and removal activity across a varied estate. It is relevant to businesses specialising in asbestos removal, asbestos remediation and related property compliance services.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded on 5 August 2026 to Asbestech Ltd. It was a direct award below the applicable threshold, conducted without competition. The contract covers one lot and runs from 13 August 2026 to 4 August 2027, for a 12-month interim period. The awarded value is £460,000 excluding VAT and £552,000 including VAT. The award relates to asbestos removal services. The published outcome records the award as active and identifies a scheduled signature milestone on 13 August 2026. Evaluation was therefore conducted through a non-competitive direct-award route rather than an open tender, and the requirement has already been placed with the selected supplier.

This award demonstrates established demand from Westminster City Council for specialist asbestos remedial works across both housing and a wider property portfolio. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in asbestos removal and remediation, together with the operational capacity to work across a varied public-sector estate. Experience of delivering statutory compliance work under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 would be directly relevant, as would the ability to manage work safely and consistently across multiple properties. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be fulfilled by a focused specialist business rather than only a large national contractor. Firms with comparable asbestos expertise, property-estate capacity and public-sector compliance experience would be the closest competitors for this type of requirement.
