Summary of the contracting process

Southern Housing procured window-cleaning services in London through its cleaning services requirement. The work covers external window cleaning at heights up to and above 75 feet, together with internal window cleaning in high-rise buildings. It is a services contract within the wider cleaning and sanitation sector. The requirement supports Southern Housing’s housing operations and is delivered across properties in London. The scope is specialist rather than general routine cleaning: suppliers need to address high-level external glazing as well as internal windows in high-rise settings. The buyer is Southern Housing, based in London. The opportunity is therefore relevant to businesses providing commercial window cleaning, high-rise access and associated cleaning services, particularly those able to operate safely across housing properties and taller buildings.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 20 May 2026 to Cleanscapes Ltd. It used a selective procurement route through a restricted procedure, within a dynamic purchasing system for cleaning services. The awarded value is £596,746.94 including the published currency of GBP. The contract runs from 6 July 2026 to 5 July 2034. The tender submission deadline was 20 May 2026. The award is active, and the buyer is Southern Housing. The requirement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The published procurement category is services, with the scope focused on external and internal window cleaning for high-rise and very high buildings in London.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates sustained demand from Southern Housing for specialist window cleaning across high-rise housing stock. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable capability in external window cleaning up to and beyond 75 feet, internal cleaning in high-rise buildings, and the operational capacity to service multiple housing properties safely and consistently. Strong working-at-height controls, suitable access equipment, trained operatives, risk assessment and method-statement capability, and reliable scheduling and quality assurance would be commercially important. The buyer identified the requirement as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so smaller specialist firms and mission-led providers may be able to compete if they can evidence the required technical delivery, safety management and service capacity through the relevant purchasing route.
