Summary of the contracting process

The Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office has successfully completed the procurement process for the provision of cleaning services at the British High Commission in Ottawa. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, which was below the standard threshold. Dexterra Group Inc., a large-scale supplier, was awarded the contract valued at £210,950.81. The contract period is scheduled to run from 4th June 2025 to 3rd June 2028, covering various locations including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and the United Kingdom. This process falls under the services category, specifically cleaning services, classified under CPV code 90910000.

This tender provides a promising opportunity for businesses involved in the cleaning services sector, particularly those that have the capability to operate across multiple geographical locations. While the contract was awarded to a large-scale supplier, the procurement process indicated suitability for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), potentially opening future avenues for similar-sized businesses to participate. Companies with a strategic focus on expanding their services within governmental facilities, especially those aiming to extend their operations internationally, would find this type of tender highly beneficial for business growth.
