Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the QEGSMAT Cleaning Services Tender has reached the award stage, with a contract signed on 22 May 2025 with Maxim Facilities Management Ltd. The tender was initiated by QEGSMAT, a public law body in the education sector based in Derbyshire, United Kingdom. The procurement falls under the services category, specifically aimed at school cleaning services, and it applied a selective procurement method known as the restricted procedure. This contract will commence on 24 May 2025 and covers comprehensive cleaning services both during and outside term time for five schools within the Derbyshire and Staffordshire areas, focusing predominantly in Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire. The awarded contract is valued at £2,024,750 and is scheduled to last for three years, with an option to extend for an additional two years.

This procurement provides numerous opportunities for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in cleaning services and are equipped to handle the complexities of educational environments. The nature of the contract, requiring adherence to TUPE regulations due to the transfer of existing staff, might also attract companies experienced in managing staffing transitions. Businesses interested in tendering for such opportunities would need to demonstrate their capacity for consistent service delivery across multiple sites and their ability to integrate into existing operational structures. The significant contract value and potential for an extended five-year involvement make it an appealing prospect for firms looking to consolidate their presence in the educational services sector within the UK regions specified.
