Summary of the contracting process

B3Living has recently completed a procurement process to award a Framework Agreement for Window Cleaning Services across Hertfordshire and Essex, specifically north of the M25. The buying organisation, B3Living, a public undertaking located in Hoddesdon, initiated this contract under an open procedure procurement method. The initial tender was made available on 26 June 2025, with bids being accepted until 1 August 2025. The contract, classified under "services", was awarded on 3 October 2025, to New Concept General Cleaning Company Limited, marking the move from the tender to the award stage. The contract is set to commence on 2 November 2025, lasting four years, with possibilities for a two-to-four-year extension based on the performance review and pricing agreements. The total contract value is £300,000.

This framework agreement offers significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in cleaning services, specifically those specialising in window cleaning within the designated geographic region and industry category. The process was competitive, with nine bids received, highlighting the strong interest and potential market for suppliers. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) particularly stand to benefit due to the suitability criteria favouring such businesses, and with the awarded firm being an SME itself, it showcases that businesses of similar scale could realistically compete and succeed in future tenders from B3Living or other similar organisations.
