Summary of the contracting process

Cumberland Council has awarded a contract for building cleaning services, focusing on corporate properties including offices, day care centres, libraries, and depots across the county. The procurement falls under the services category with a CPV code of 90910000, which pertains to cleaning services. The contract, valued at £4,000,000 and awarded to Orian Solutions Ltd, spans up to four years, beginning with a two-year term and the option for two additional one-year extensions. This award follows a complete tender process conducted via an open procedure and is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA). The procurement stage is currently at the 'Award' stage, with the contract having been signed on 3rd April 2025, targeting locations primarily in the UKD1 region.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities for service providers in the cleaning industry, particularly those that can deliver high-quality services while emphasising social value. With a scoring criterion of 60% on quality, 20% on social value, and 20% on price, businesses with a strong track record in delivering sustainable and value-oriented solutions have a competitive edge. While the initial contract was active, the subsequent need for re-procurement might open further opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), evidenced by a significant portion of initial bids being from SMEs. These firms should ensure adherence to Cumberland Council’s requirements, including diversity compliance and relevant statutory obligations, to enhance their bid competitiveness in future tenders.
