Summary of the contracting process

The Equality and Human Rights Commission procured professional office cleaning services for its Manchester office. The requirement covers cleaning and vacuuming a single floor every weekday, with work carried out between 4pm and 7pm from Monday to Friday. Additional cleaning services are required when needed. This is a facilities management service focused on maintaining a clean, presentable office environment. The delivery location is Manchester, England. The procurement falls within the office cleaning services category. The buyer is the Equality and Human Rights Commission, which uses the service for its Manchester premises.

The procurement is complete and was run as a selective further competition under Lot 3a of the Crown Commercial Service RM6232 Facilities Management and Workplace Services Framework Agreement, using a framework call-off procedure. Bids were due by 30 May 2023 at 1pm. The contract was awarded to Churchill Contract Services Limited on 3 July 2023 for £152,566.08. The contract period runs from 3 July 2023 to 2 July 2027. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The recorded outcome is an active award to a single supplier, covering the daily and additional cleaning services for the Manchester office.

For suppliers assessing comparable future requirements from the Equality and Human Rights Commission, this procurement demonstrates demand for routine office cleaning at a defined single-site scale, with weekday evening attendance and the ability to provide additional services when required. A credible competitor would need dependable cleaning staff who can work consistently between 4pm and 7pm, maintain professional standards across an occupied office environment and respond to extra requests. Operational capacity, reliable supervision, quality control and continuity of service would be important. Businesses would also need to understand and operate through the relevant facilities management framework route, since this requirement was competed among framework suppliers rather than through an unrestricted tender.
