The brief

Derby City Council (the Council) is undertaking this procurement to establish two contracts: • Lot 1 Asbestos removal and remediation services • Lot 2 Asbestos analyst services The procurement process adopted by the Council is based on the 'Open' tendering procedure as detailed in the Procurement Act 2023 (the "Act") and the Procurement Regulations 2024 (the "Regulations".) For Lot 1 the asbestos removal and remediation services contract, the initial contract period is two years and is estimated to commence on 1st February 2027 and expire on 31st January 2029.

For Lot 2 the asbestos analyst services contract, the initial contract period is two years and is estimated to commence on 13th February 2027 and expire on 12th February 2029.

For both contracts there will be an option to extend the contract for three (3) years in annual increments, subject to satisfactory performance and business needs.

Maximum contract period is five (5) years.

Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) is underway in several areas across the country and may result in changes to council structures, service delivery and responsibilities, and geographical coverage during the life of the contract.

For this contract it is anticipated that the effects of LGR may lead to an increased service demand or the need to extend provision to new areas or client groups.

For Lot 1 the asbestos removal and remediation services contract, bidders should note that the total estimated contract value of £1,172,000, comprises of two components: i) The core contract value, estimated at £293,000, based on known current service requirements ii) An additional estimated value of £879,000 to reflect potential future changes in service scope or volume linked to LGR.

For Lot 2 the asbestos analyst services contract, bidders should note that the total estimated contract value of £2,616,000, comprises of two components: i) The core contract value, estimated at £654,000, based on known current service requirements ii) An additional estimated value of £1,962,000 to reflect potential future changes in service scope or volume linked to LGR.

These figures are estimations and due to only being in the early stages of the process the Authority cannot give any commitment on these figures but would like to build scope into the Contract should the need arise.
