Summary of the contracting process

The South West Essex Community Education Trust is currently in the tender stage for building cleaning services, as indicated by their announcement dated 1st October 2025. This procurement process, conducted using a restricted procedure, aims to secure cleaning services for various educational institutions within their jurisdiction. The contract entails several lots, covering primary and secondary schools, with a contract start date slated for 1st April 2026 and an end date of 31st March 2029. Interested suppliers are required to submit their proposals before the tender period ends on 27th October 2025. The procurement falls under the services category, specifically focusing on building-cleaning services with CPV code 90911200, and is open to suppliers that are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

This tender offers substantial business opportunities, particularly for cleaning service providers that specialise in educational environments. With the contract currently divided amongst separate third-party contractors, consolidation under one provider could yield cost efficiencies and improved service consistency. Businesses experienced in large-scale cleaning operations across multiple sites, particularly those accustomed to working with primary and secondary schools, would be well-suited to compete for this opportunity. Additionally, providers with a strong presence in the UK and the ability to extend services to locations such as the Channel Islands and British Overseas Territories may find this tender particularly suitable for expansion efforts.
