Framework Description
Staffordshire County Council's Framework Agreement for Demolition and Associated Services runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2028, with an option to extend by up to 24 months to 31 July 2030. It covers demolition of buildings across the Council's property portfolio, with works mainly valued up to £250,000 and a total framework value of £4 million. The notice is Find a Tender 016484-2026.
Context & Use Case
The Council calls off demolition across domestic housing, sheltered housing, schools, hospitals, offices and commercial buildings in its portfolio. Because the timing and scope of demolitions are hard to predict, a framework lets it act quickly on each job while keeping costs under control through pre-agreed terms with contractors it has already assessed.
Scope of Services
Demolition of domestic and sheltered housing Demolition of schools and hospitals Demolition of offices and commercial properties Associated services, on works mainly valued up to £250,000

Who Can Apply
Suits demolition contractors experienced in small and medium-sized jobs on a range of building types, with strong health, safety, environmental and hazardous materials credentials. Applications for this framework are closed; contractors not appointed must wait for a re-tender around 31 July 2028, or 31 July 2030 if extended.
Buyer Benefits
The Council gets pre-qualified demolition contractors it can instruct quickly when a building needs to come down, with health and safety competence already checked. Pre-agreed terms also help control cost on jobs whose scope can be uncertain until work starts.
Next Steps
Appointed contractors should show the Council safe, tidy delivery on early call-offs, since performance shapes future instructions and any extension decision. Others should note the July 2028 end date and possible extension to July 2030, and build demolition case studies on public sites, along with health, safety and environmental records, ready for the re-tender.
