Summary of the contracting process

The Cambridgeshire County Council has initiated a tender process for the extension of its Cleaning & Grounds Maintenance Contract, originally established in 2017. This contract falls under the Cleaning services industry category and is located in Huntingdon, UK. The procurement method used is limited, allowing for the contract to be extended by 12 months due to exceptional circumstances, including the Covid pandemic and changes in political leadership. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, with the contract signed on 5th October 2021 and active with the supplier, Excellerate Services UK Ltd.

This opportunity may foster significant growth for businesses within the cleaning and grounds maintenance sectors, especially those equipped to handle large-scale contracts and meet compliance requirements. Companies with expertise in service provision and familiarity with local authority contracts will find this particularly beneficial. The competitive range for bids previously valued between £1 million and £1.2 million indicates the financial scale of the opportunity, making it an attractive prospect for medium to large-sized enterprises looking to expand their portfolio in public sector contracting.

Notice Title

Extension of Cambridgeshire County Council Cleaning & Grounds Maintenance Contract

Notice Description

Cambridgeshire County Council have an existing Cleaning & Grounds Maintenance contract, advertised within the Official Journal of the European on the 28th of August 2017, reference 2017/S 164-338113. Due to a combination of the Covid Pandemic, the change in Political Leadership at Cambridgeshire County Council necessitating the full review of the contractual options, and the Council's move to a new Headquarters meaning staff who would have been significantly involved in a Procurement exercise did not have capacity to do so, it has not been possible to award a fully compliant contract including the significant implementation period required to potentially allow for purchase of machinery and TUPE considerations in the required timescale. CCC are therefore submitting a Voluntary Ex-Ante Transparency Notice to allow for the current contract to be extended by 12 months, to allow a full tender process to take place.
