Shield’s Asbestos Division Will Provide Services To The Procurement For Housing Compliance Solutions Framework

Procurement for Housing (PFH) was established in 2004 and is a national procurement consortium focussing solely on the social housing sector. PFH is supported by the National Housing Federation (NHF), Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) and HouseMark.  PFH members collectively manage more than 75% of the UK’s social housing stock, with PFH helping them achieve efficiency savings via framework agreements and other mechanisms.

Shield Asbestos Services secured a position on the ‘PFH Compliance Solutions Framework’, covering the following key points:

• Lot 1b Asbestos Removal
• Secured work within all 8 regions that we bid on, securing works that cover all our UK asbestos regional offices
• 3-year framework with the option of extending for a further 12-month period
• Expected expenditure over the period for asbestos up to circa £20m

Dean Howe, Shield Services Group’s Business Development Director, commented, “Procurement For Housing is a longstanding framework with a reputation for providing great value and service for its members and property residents.  To be involved nationally with PFH is a huge ‘tick in the box’ for Shield, and I am delighted that we have been successful with this tender process.”

Paul Lillis, Shield Asbestos Services Managing Director, reflected, “This announcement is great news for our regional asbestos branches and the Group as a whole. I know that our teams will provide their usual high level of service, professionalism and safe ways of working as they deliver for the members of PFH.“
