Summary of the contracting process

Oxfordshire County Council commissioned asbestos-removal works at Abingdon Fire Station under a JCT 2016 Minor Works contract. The requirement covers the removal of asbestos from the fire station and is classified as asbestos-removal work. The buying organisation is Oxfordshire County Council, a sub-central public authority. Delivery is in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom. This is a construction and hazardous-materials remediation requirement rather than a general building, cleaning or facilities-management service. Suppliers relevant to this procurement would be contractors specialising in asbestos surveys, controlled removal, licensed disposal and associated reinstatement or minor building works, subject to the requirements of the contract and applicable health and safety obligations.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was completed, and the contract was awarded to NJF Shopfitting & Construction Ltd. The contract was signed on 7 August 2025 and runs from 7 August 2025 to 24 October 2025. Its value is £77,445.15 excluding VAT, or £92,934.18 including VAT. The selected supplier is based in Kidlington. The procurement used a limited procedure rather than an open competition, and the available outcome records the supplier as active. The requirement was evaluated through the limited competition process for the single asbestos-removal works lot. The contract is below the applicable threshold.

This award confirms a defined requirement for asbestos-removal work at an Oxfordshire County Council property, delivered through a below-threshold limited competition and a JCT 2016 Minor Works contract. A future competitor would need credible asbestos-removal capability, including the resources, competent personnel, risk controls and waste-management arrangements needed to carry out work safely in an operational fire-station environment. Experience of public-sector minor works contracts and the ability to manage a self-contained remediation project would strengthen a supplier’s position. The successful business is an SME based in Kidlington, indicating that a specialist local contractor can serve this buyer. Relevant firms should be prepared to demonstrate reliable delivery, statutory compliance, construction coordination and controlled asbestos handling at comparable council sites.
