Summary of the contracting process

The Aspire Academy Trust is initiating a procurement process for the provision of a school compliance kitchen cleaning service. This tender, currently in the planning stage, involves delivering regular deep cleaning services for industrial kitchen equipment during main school holidays, ensuring all cleans are done simultaneously across schools. Located in St Austell, Cornwall, Aspire Academy Trust operates as a public authority in central government, and PHP Law LLP serves as the procurement consultant. Scheduled for a preliminary market engagement meeting on 1st July 2025 via Microsoft Teams, this tender falls within the services category and covers the South West region (UKK) in the United Kingdom. Future notices related to this tender are expected by 14th July 2025, with the contract period anticipated to begin on 3rd November 2025 and last until 2nd November 2028, with possible extensions.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the cleaning and sanitation services industry, particularly for SMEs, given its suitable size and scope for smaller enterprises. Companies specialising in school cleaning services and industrial kitchen equipment maintenance can leverage this opportunity to establish or expand their presence in the public sector. With a contract value grossing £120,000, businesses proficient in providing skilled operatives for compliance cleaning have the potential to secure a long-term partnership with a public authority buyer. The structured engagement and communication plan offer firms a clear pathway to engage with the Trust, enabling them to understand the service requirements and tailor their approach accordingly.
