Summary of the contracting process

Northamptonshire Partnership Homes is seeking contractors to carry out asbestos surveying and related technical consultancy across its housing stock and operational properties in Northamptonshire. The work covers management surveys, refurbishment and demolition surveys, re-inspections, sampling and bulk sample analysis, as well as emergency surveys when asbestos may have been disturbed or damaged. Properties include occupied and empty homes, communal areas, garages, plant rooms and operational buildings. Contractors must arrange access, liaise with residents and NPH representatives, and keep disruption to a minimum. They must provide electronic survey data and reports with clear recommendations to support asbestos-risk management and maintenance of NPH’s asbestos register. This is a building surveying and asbestos risk consultancy service, not a contract solely for asbestos removal.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure, for one lot and appointment of two contractors, with the contract value shared between them. The published estimated value is £800,000 excluding VAT (£960,000 including VAT). The contract is due to run from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2029, with an option to extend for up to 12 months, to 31 December 2030. The deadline for questions was 30 October 2026 at 17:00, and the bid deadline was 13 November 2026 at 12:00. The award decision was scheduled by 27 November 2026. Evaluation gives quality 60% and price 40%. The lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This opportunity suits asbestos surveying firms with the competence, accreditation and experience to work in residential housing environments and across varied property types, including occupied homes and operational buildings. Suppliers need to deliver the full survey range, from routine management and re-inspection work to refurbishment and demolition surveys, sampling, analysis and urgent response when suspected asbestos is damaged or disturbed. Strong operational capability is important: contractors must coordinate access, communicate professionally with residents and the housing provider, and limit disruption. They should be able to produce reliable electronic reports and recommendations that inform asbestos-risk decisions and register maintenance. The requirement also calls for sound knowledge of current asbestos legislation, health and safety requirements and industry best practice. The buyer intends to appoint two providers, so suppliers need capacity to deliver responsive services across the housing stock as part of a shared contract.
