The contract will commence on 01 September 2023 for an initial contract period of three years, with the option to extend the contract for a further three 12-month periods. This extension will be granted by mutual consent and on the same terms and conditions as the original contract. The contract will be fixed price in nature with the successful Supplier also guaranteeing the number of input hours to the contract as well as the quality of cleaning provision. Financial constraints affecting all schools mean that a robust and cost-effective solution must be provided. The Trust is expected to grow in the number of Academies becoming part of the Trust during this contract period, and the provision of cleaning services within these Academies when they have joined the Trust may fall under the scope of this contract. The successful Supplier will be expected to provide this service within these Academies using the same costing model, ratios etc that they applied to their successful tender submission for the Trust at the point of tender submission.
