Tai Tarian, a Welsh housing organisation managing over 9,000 properties, is looking for contractors to help them manage and remove asbestos across their homes and housing complexes. They're creating a Framework (a pre-approved list of suppliers) that they'll use to call off work as needed over several years, rather than running separate tenders each time.
Requirements
- For Lot 1 (Licensed and Non-Licensed Asbestos Removal): Must hold appropriate asbestos removal licensing where required by law
- For Lot 2 (Non-Licensed Asbestos Removal): Must be qualified to carry out non-licensed asbestos removal work
- For Lot 3 (Asbestos Surveying, Sampling and Air Testing/Monitoring): Must have competence in asbestos surveying, sampling, and air monitoring services
- Must comply with the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Bidders must follow Open Procedure procurement rules under the Procurement Act 2023
- Must be able to work across a large portfolio (9,000+ properties) with domestic housing, flats, and sheltered housing
- Check ITT documents for insurance, safeguarding, and financial stability requirements not detailed in this notice
Key Tasks & Deliverables
- Lot 1: Licensed and non-licensed asbestos removal across domestic houses, flats, and sheltered housing complexes
- Lot 2: Non-licensed asbestos removal work (lower-risk asbestos removal where licensing is not required)
- Lot 3: Asbestos surveying to identify asbestos in buildings, sampling of materials suspected to contain asbestos, and air testing/monitoring to check for asbestos fibres in the air during or after work
- Respond to call-off orders from Tai Tarian as required throughout the Framework period
- Maintain compliance and safety standards across 9,000+ residential properties
How to Read This Tender
- 1This is a Framework Agreement, not a single contract — Tai Tarian will invite you to bid on individual jobs ('call-offs') after you're on the framework. You're bidding to get on an approved list first; work comes later.
- 2The tender is split into three Lots: you can bid for one, two, or all three depending on your qualifications. Lot 1 requires licensing; Lot 2 and 3 have different requirements. Check which Lot(s) you're legally qualified for before applying.
- 3The description mentions 'Open Procedure' — this means any qualified business can apply; it's not restricted to a pre-selected group. This is competitive, so your bid needs to be strong.
- 4Most of the real detail (scoring criteria, pricing, technical requirements, how call-offs work, how many years the framework runs) is in the ITT documents — download and read these fully before deciding to bid.
- 5Watch for social value requirements — many UK public sector tenders now require bidders to explain benefits to the local community (jobs, training, environmental improvements, etc.). Check if Tai Tarian has included this in their scoring.
Tips for Small Businesses
- If you're only qualified for one Lot (e.g., only surveying, not removal), still bid for that Lot — there's no penalty for specialising. Alternatively, consider partnering with other small firms to cover multiple Lots as a consortium; this can make your bid stronger and spread risk.
- Framework agreements can be very valuable for small businesses because once you're approved, you get a stream of work without re-tendering each time. However, there's usually a 'standstill period' after award where competitors can challenge — budget time and resource accordingly.
- Get the full ITT documents immediately and check: (a) how many suppliers Tai Tarian will appoint to each Lot (if it's 1–2, competition is fierce; if 5+, your chances improve), (b) how they'll score your bid (price, experience, method, social value?), and (c) call-off terms (how much notice you'll get, minimum/maximum order values, response times). This determines your bidding strategy.
