EEM are looking to run a procurement exercise to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System of pre checked and approved suppliers for demolition and dismantling works for use by our members. The DPS will cover low and high rise demolition and associated works to domestic and commercial properties, allowing for a variety of demolition methods based on the most suitable for the property and Contracting Authority requirements. The DPS will replace our existing Demolition Framework that expires in August 2020.

The DPS will cover single and multiple demolition contracts, low and high rise buildings and domestic and commercial properties ensuing all buildings are demolished down to ground level. Structures must be demolished in accordance with BS 6187.

Approved DPS suppliers will be responsible for all associated works required as part of demolition contracts including but not limited to:

• All necessary plans, surveys, risk assessments, method statements and reports to support the safe and successful demolition of properties.
• Preparation of Construction Phase Plan and Health and Safety files and Site Waste Management Plan
• Site security, hoarding,compound and welfare set-up.
• Working with the Contracting Authorities to obtain any necessary licenses including F10 notification to the HSE required to carry out the works, from the relevant authority.
• Carry out Principal Contractor role in accordance with The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM 2015). Ensuring the demolition and dismantling of structures are planned and carried out in such a way as to prevent danger or, where this is not practicable, to reduce danger to as low a level as reasonably practicable.
• Dust, noise, and vibrating plant monitoring.
• Containment and removal of all Asbestos Containing Materials, where requested to arrange this in line with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and the Refurbishment & Demolition Survey included within Contracting Authority tender documentation.
• Site preparation and clearance work to include soft strip out works to remove all non-structural elements inside and outside of a building to facilitate demolition works.
• Sorting and salvage of demolished materials once property has been demolished unless otherwise agreed with the Contracting Authority.
• Removal and disposal of all demolition material off site.
• Waste storage, transportation and disposal in accordance with relevant legislation and regulations and in accordance with site waste management plans ensuring use of a licensed waste carrier and disposal station.
