## Summary

Home Group, a public authority classified as sub-central government, is spearheading a planned procurement process, focusing on the asbestos management industry. The current stage is pre-market engagement, inviting service providers to participate in a Request for Information (RFI) for their upcoming Asbestos Management Framework. The framework aims to deliver services across various UK regions, including UKC, UKD, UKE, and others. Key dates include the RFI closing on 15th July 2026, with future notices anticipated by 15th September 2026. This initiative paves the way for a framework contract expected to commence on 1st April 2027, running until 31st March 2031, with a gross value of up to £4,800,000.

This procurement process presents significant opportunities for businesses in asbestos removal and related technical services. Companies equipped for surveying, testing, and removal of asbestos can greatly benefit from engaging early, as insight shared now can shape the subsequent tender. The open procedure, focusing on establishing a framework agreement, suggests a preference for experienced providers, and it presents a notable growth avenue for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with the capability to service multiple regions across the UK. The strategic engagement ensures that competitive suppliers can enhance their visibility and potentially secure lucrative contracts aligned with Home Group’s nationwide projects.
