Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council commissioned demolition and associated services at the former Smethwick Enterprise Centre in Sandwell, West Midlands. The works concern the removal of the former enterprise centre and related demolition activity. The procurement was delivered through the council’s demolition works framework. Its subject is building demolition and site clearance work (CPV 45110000), rather than a general construction project. The named location is the former centre in Sandwell; the contract does not identify any other delivery location or separate work package.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to AR Demolition Ltd. Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council used a limited procedure as a call-off from its demolition works framework, without a separately published competition. Price was the stated award criterion, and one bid was recorded. The contract was signed on 18 August 2026 and is active. Its value is £1,285,392. The tender had one lot, covering demolition works at the former Smethwick Enterprise Centre; that lot is recorded as cancelled, while the associated award and contract are active. No contract period is recorded, so the duration of the awarded work cannot be stated.

For demolition contractors, this award demonstrates Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council’s use of a framework call-off to procure demolition and related services for a former public-sector building. The successful supplier was AR Demolition Ltd, and the recorded single bid indicates that this call-off attracted one bidder; price was the stated basis of award. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to deliver building demolition and associated site work at a defined location in Sandwell, and be positioned to compete through the council’s demolition works framework. The award provides evidence of a substantial, building-specific demolition requirement rather than a broad construction package. Suppliers whose work is limited to new-build construction, or who cannot operate through the relevant framework route, are less closely aligned with this buyer’s demonstrated purchase.
