Notice Title

Cidari MAT Framework Cleaning Tender 2025

Notice Description

The Cidari Multi Academy Trust are seeking to procure a number of providers for a multi-supplier framework for cleaning services. The main objective of this procurement exercise is to deliver the procurement of a framework that will enable the trust to source cleaning services for its schools. There are initially 4-5 schools in this framework, however, other schools may call off later. It should be noted that it is not mandatory for trust schools to use this framework. Schools will only call off from this agreement if they have a requirement to do so. It is envisaged the number of contractors on the framework will be between 1 and 3 The provision of the service must demonstrate the best value approach and be flexible in its delivery and operation to ensure that the needs and ethos of individual schools are supported. This framework process is targeted to have a cleaning contract in place to commence in September 2025 for the initial direct award schools. Please note that this process covers all cleaning services within the Cidari Multi Academy Trust schools with full tender costings and proposals for the schools for a contract start in in September 2025 for the initial direct award schools. These details will be further explained in the ITT documents. The process will be through a competitive flexible procedure commencing with a participation stage to create a select bidder list following analysis of a PSQ document (within which the scoring criteria will be included). The nature of the contract demands a good local infrastructure to provide and maintain the level and standard of cleaning service and support required by the Trust. Labour resource/relief cover is very important. We have set a minimum level of turnover for this tender at 250,000 GBP which takes into account the contract turnover and cash flow associations. This is a discretionary pass/fail question on the basis that we will consider any additional guarantees and formal assurances such as parent company guarantors or similar which must be included to support any submission. We have set a minimum Employer's (compulsory) liability insurance of 10,000,000 GBP). Following the analysis of PSQ's the selected bidders will be invited to attend a site survey and tender briefing initially planned for mid-May 2025. Tender response deadline is planned as early-June 2025 and it is envisaged that interviews will take place in late-June 2025. The contract will be for a 3 +1 +1 period (5 years in total including the option to extend for 1 + 1years).
