Summary of the contracting process

Plymouth Community Homes is seeking a contractor to carry out asbestos management surveys in its domestic properties and associated areas. The work is to locate, so far as reasonably practicable, asbestos-containing materials and assess their condition and the risk of disturbance during normal occupation and maintenance. Surveys cover property interiors, gardens and other areas within the property boundary, outbuildings, garages, communal areas and commercial premises. The services must follow the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, HSE guidance HSG264 and applicable legislation, codes of practice and industry standards. The procurement is for surveying services, with work delivered in the United Kingdom.

The buyer invited offers through a competitive flexible procedure, allowing for a possible negotiation stage. There is one lot. The enquiry deadline was 13 October 2026 at 11:00, and the bid deadline was 26 October 2026 at 12:00. The contract period runs from 4 January 2027 to 1 November 2029. The estimated value is £680,000 excluding VAT (£816,000 including VAT). Evaluation is weighted 85% on price and 15% on sustainability and social value; the technical assessment is pass/fail. The buyer planned to conclude the award decision by 1 December 2026.

This opportunity suits asbestos survey providers able to undertake management surveys across a varied housing and property portfolio, including homes, outbuildings, garages, communal spaces and commercial premises. Suppliers need the technical competence to identify and assess asbestos-containing materials and judge their condition and potential for disturbance in everyday occupation and maintenance. Delivery must comply with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, HSE guidance HSG264 and other applicable legislation, approved codes and industry standards. Small and medium-sized businesses are considered suitable to compete. The assessment makes price the dominant scored factor, alongside sustainability and social value, while technical compliance is a pass/fail requirement.
