Summary of the contracting process

Holy Cross Sixth Form College procured building-cleaning services for its premises on Manchester Road in Bury, England. The requirement covers the college’s building-cleaning provision through Lot 6 of the CPC Building Cleaning Services Framework, with one supplier selected to deliver the service. This is a services contract for organisations providing routine or managed cleaning of educational buildings and associated facilities. The procurement is classified as building-cleaning services (CPV 90911200). The stated delivery postcode is BL9 9BB, identifying the college site in Bury. The opportunity is therefore most relevant to commercial cleaning contractors able to provide an ongoing building-cleaning service for a sixth-form college, rather than suppliers of cleaning products alone or one-off specialist cleaning.

The procurement has reached the award stage and is complete. It used an open procedure through Lot 6 of the CPC Building Cleaning Services Framework. The tender deadline was 6 July 2026 at 11:00. The initial estimated value was £1,880,000. Holy Cross Sixth Form College awarded the contract to Bulloughs Cleaning Services Ltd for £964,014. The award date was 7 September 2026. The awarded contract period runs from 26 October 2026 to 25 October 2029. The tender was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The procurement concerned one supplier and one building-cleaning services requirement; the published information does not set out separate awarded lots or a detailed evaluation weighting.

This award demonstrates established demand from Holy Cross Sixth Form College for a substantial, multi-year building-cleaning service delivered through the CPC framework route. A credible future competitor would need to operate as a professional commercial cleaning contractor, provide dependable ongoing coverage for an educational site, and manage service delivery consistently across the full contract term. Relevant strengths would include trained cleaning staff, robust supervision, quality-control arrangements, safe working practices and the operational capacity to maintain college buildings without disruption. The requirement was marked as suitable for SMEs, so smaller contractors with sufficient staffing, management systems and relevant education-sector or comparable commercial cleaning experience could be well placed when this type of requirement next reaches the market.
