Birmingham City Council invites organisations for the demolition and associated works including site clearance of barberry house, 15 Shannon Road, Kings Norton south, Birmingham, B38 9BX

It is considered that the 10 Storey tower block is no longer suitable and the site is earmarked for redevelopment, therefore identifies the need for safe demolition and site clearance. High reach machinery is the preferred method for the tower block demolition.

The site must be well secured by use of appropriate fencing during and at the end of the contract.

Contractors wishing to tender for this contract must have 2 years of audited accounts showing a minimum annual average turnover of £2.0 Million.

A Public/Product liability insurance of £5 million and Employers Liability Insurance of £10 million must be provided.

The contractor must hold or employ persons with valid HSE asbestos license to be able to remove notifiable asbestos (if any).

It is anticipated the works will commence in August 2020 and be completed by November 2020. The successful contractor will need to demonstrate his ability to provide the service required, confirmation of conforming to demolition, asbestos and other relevant health and safety legislation, equalities and financial stability.

The estimated value of the works is in the region of £350,000.00 to £550,000.00.
