Lot Information

Lot 1

The current cleaning service provision at the Schools has not been market tested in recent years and to ensure Best Value principles are applied the Client has made a decision to tender the cleaning service. The current cleaning operation is run by Accuro Facilities. The value of the current contracts is PS166k and it is intended that the initial contract shall run for a period of 3 years starting 1st September 2024, with the ability to extend by a further two years with agreement with both parties. For the avoidance of doubt TUPE Regulations will apply to this contract. The successful Supplier will be expected to deliver a concise and detailed method of management reporting at the end of each month, thus updating the senior management team within the school on contract performance. It is imperative that an open book policy is offered to ensure the Client has total clarity on both operational and financial performance. The Client is seeking both innovation and the application of current cleaning techniques and up-to-date equipment within the tender submissions and would expect as a result of this to be able to identify 'best value' principles and work in partnership with the chosen Supplier going forward. The Client has set five key objectives which should be focused upon throughout the tender process. They are: *Ongoing savings year-on-year during the contract term. *Review / suggestions to improve work methodology; suggestions to improve the efficiency of service. *Due to the high percentage of hard flooring throughout the site, it is believed specialist equipment will be required to maintain a high standard of cleanliness throughout.
