Summary of the contracting process

Heriot-Watt University, located in Riccarton, Edinburgh, has completed the procurement process for the supply and delivery of cleaning and janitorial products. This award, utilising the Advanced Procurement for Universities and Colleges Framework Agreement, has been directly awarded to Unico Ltd without prior publication of a call for competition due to the procurement's classification as outside the directive's scope. The contract was signed on 1st November 2024, with a total value of £440,000. The award's status is currently active, focusing on the goods category for cleaning products, with a notable delivery location at Heriot-Watt University's address.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in cleaning and janitorial products, particularly those capable of meeting technical and commercial criteria on an equal basis. SMEs such as Unico Ltd, which secured the award, demonstrate the potential for smaller enterprises to succeed in public sector procurement. Companies that can deliver high-quality goods efficiently and competitively priced are well-suited to participate in similar future tenders, particularly within the education sector and public institutions governed by procurement frameworks like the one utilised by Heriot-Watt University.
