UK3 - Planned Procurement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "ID540 Communal, Office & Window Cleaning" services was undertaken by Aspire Housing, a public authority in Newcastle Under Lyme, United Kingdom. Initially planned and later tendered, the process aimed at acquiring a service provider to perform communal cleaning and window cleaning across Aspire's operational area. The procurement process was open and valued at £1,600,000, closing to submissions by 14th July 2025. However, the tender was eventually cancelled on 24th November 2025 due to an inability to complete a like-for-like evaluation concerning costs, thus terminating the procurement prematurely. It was intended to run from 1st December 2025 to 30th November 2028, with a potential extension for two further 12-month periods.

This tender presented significant opportunities for businesses specialising in cleaning services, particularly those focusing on communal, building and window cleaning. The contract sought high standards of adherence to relevant safety and performance regulations, signalling opportunities for firms with robust quality assurance processes. Despite the cancellation, similar future procurement needs from Aspire Housing could benefit enterprises that cater to the public sector, including SMEs and VCSEs, with capabilities in delivering comprehensive cleaning services. Such contracts are pivotal in establishing long-term business growth through association with public authority projects.
