Summary of the contracting process

Places for London Limited, a subsidiary of Transport for London, has recently completed a procurement process for Facilities Management Services. This opportunity, which was initially in the tender stage, has undergone cancellation as of 19th September 2025 due to an internal review. The contract aimed to cover Hard and Soft Facilities Management services, split into two lots: Lot 1 for Soft FM and Lot 2 for Hard FM, intended for areas across Greater London. Initially active, the procurement included key services such as building maintenance, cleaning, security, and more. Despite its completion status due to termination, the opportunity is anticipated to be relaunched with revisions, particularly excluding Security Services from Lot 1 in the next iteration.

This tender offered considerable scope for business growth, particularly for organisations specialising in facilities management services. Companies with expertise in maintenance, environmental sustainability, and efficient service delivery were well-positioned to benefit. The process adopted a competitive flexible procedure, attracting diverse SMEs with the potential to bid for either one or both lots. With an estimated contract period of 5 years and 6 months plus potential extensions, businesses had opportunities for long-term engagement and growth, especially as the procurement strategy prioritised both quality and social value, alongside price. With the anticipated relaunch, businesses keen on expanding their service footprint in London should stay attuned for the revised tender announcement.
