Summary of the contracting process

The contracting process for providing cleaning services to Wakefield and District Housing (WDH) Corporate Offices across multiple regions in the United Kingdom has reached the award stage. The tender, titled "Cleaning Services to WDH Corporate Offices across the Wakefield District," was completed using further competition within the ESPO framework for Total Cleaning Service Solutions. Managed by Wakefield and District Housing Limited, the procurement falls under the services category, specifically focusing on cleaning services. The contract runs from 2nd October 2023 to 3rd October 2028, with a total awarded contract value of £600,000. Key locations include the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West regions. The procurement method used is listed as 'Other,' and the tender invitation was finalised by 21st February 2023.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses operating in the cleaning services industry, particularly those with capabilities to serve large estates across multiple regions in England. The successful supplier, Norse Commercial Services, a large-scale enterprise, demonstrates that the contract may be more suited to larger firms with extensive resources and experience in handling substantial contracts across various geographic locations. Companies looking to expand their service portfolio regionally within the UK's housing sector will find this contract a potential model for scaling up their service delivery, although it may not be ideal for small to medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community, and social enterprises due to the contract's scale and requirements.
