Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Link Group, headquartered in Edinburgh, is currently seeking contractors for the "Stair and Window Cleaning Contract 2021 - 2023," covering a total value of £828,000. This procurement falls under the category of accommodation, building, and window cleaning services and aims to maintain communal areas across rented and sheltered accommodations in various regions of Scotland, including Edinburgh, Glasgow, Falkirk & Fife, and Lanarkshire. The tender is at the planning stage, with submissions closing on 17th February 2021. The contract duration begins on 1st April 2021, with a potential for extensions of up to two additional years based on mutual agreement. The procurement follows a selective method, inviting a limited number of qualified candidates to participate in the tender process.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialised in cleaning services, particularly those with experience in communal facility maintenance. Competitors should be prepared to demonstrate a strong track record in service quality and must provide an Employment and Skills Plan as part of their bid to address community benefit requirements. Companies that meet the financial criteria—specifically, an annual turnover at least double the estimated contract value—will be well-positioned to pursue this opportunity, which not only ensures competitive bidding but also supports community engagement through mandatory benefits associated with contract performance.
