Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for dry cleaning services was conducted by The Crown Estate, located at 1 St James's Market, London, England. This contract, classified under the industry category of 'washing and dry-cleaning services', was awarded through a direct procurement method termed as a single tender action (below threshold). The relevant procurement stage has reached completion, transitioning from tender to award status. The procurement process began with a tender period ending on 15th May 2025, leading to an active award on the same day. The contract spans from 16th May 2025 to 16th May 2028, valued at £15,700 GBP.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), such as those involved in laundry and dry-cleaning services, particularly due to its direct procurement approach favouring single, targeted suppliers. Given the stability provided by the three-year contract period and the specific service required, businesses with established facilities and efficient service delivery in the UK market, like Johnsons Workwear Ltd, which was awarded the contract, can benefit significantly by enhancing service offerings and establishing long-term client relationships with influential buyers like The Crown Estate.
