Pre-Advertisement Notice for Demolition and Asbestos Abatement Services

The City of Atlanta, through its Department of Procurement on behalf of the Atlanta Police Department's Code Enforcement Section, is conducting a Multi-Step Competitive Sealed Bid process for citywide demolition and asbestos abatement services in Fulton County, Georgia. The procurement encompasses comprehensive turnkey services for the demolition of over 500 structures within a five-year period, including single-family residences, multi-building apartment complexes, and large commercial, industrial, and institutional properties. Deliverables include planning, permitting, asbestos abatement where applicable, demolition, debris removal, utility disconnection, site grading, erosion control, and site stabilization, to be performed on an as-needed basis at various City locations. Minimum qualifications require vendors to possess Georgia-certified asbestos abatement contractor certification, Level 1A certification from the Georgia Soil and Water Conservation Commission, verified equipment ownership, demonstrated capacity for high-volume work, and the ability to self-perform demolition services. The procurement process begins with a prequalification phase evaluating vendors on Georgia asbestos abatement certification, Level 1A certification, regulatory compliance history, equipment ownership and staffing capacity, ability to self-perform demolition, past performance, and safety records, followed by an Invitation for Bid phase. A Pre-Solicitation Conference will be noticed and held to provide additional details. The pre-advertisement notice was posted on March 4, 2026, with a deadline of March 31, 2026.

The opportunity document does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions limiting participation to disadvantaged enterprises or particular organization types, allowing for open competition among qualified vendors. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available materials. Pricing will be structured on individual unit prices per property as outlined in the Cost Proposal Schedule, with vendors assuming full responsibility and liability for all costs associated with permits, salvage operations, utility disconnections, debris disposal, and site restoration. Permit fees are reimbursable to vendors, while dumping fees are non-reimbursable. Work hours are restricted to Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., excluding calendar holidays. While the specific total contract value is not disclosed in the pre-advertisement notice, the five-year projection for demolition of over 500 structures indicates a substantial procurement opportunity. All invoices require supporting permits and dumping receipts for payment authorization.
