Summary of the contracting process

Ongo Homes Limited, a buyer categorised as a public authority within sub-central government, initiated a tender process for "Window Cleaning Services" across properties in North Lincolnshire and South Yorkshire. Classified under accommodation, building, and window cleaning services, this process began with an open procurement method below threshold, encouraging competitive participation. Despite its active launch on 7 July 2025 and initially closing on 31 July 2025, with the contract period set from 1 October 2025 to 30 September 2028, the tender was ultimately cancelled on 13 November 2025. The tender included detailed quality and price criteria, with the procurement offering up to a cost of £108,000 and presenting potential contract extensions until 2030.

This tender initially presented growth opportunities in the cleaning services sector, appealing particularly to SMEs capable of delivering high-quality services under competitive pricing. The combination of cost-focused and quality-focused evaluation promised varied opportunities for businesses with expertise in managing large-scale cleaning contracts. Although the award was cancelled, the specifications and expectations outlined provide businesses insights into the procurement standards and competitive landscape for similar future opportunities issued by Ongo Homes Limited and other public authorities.
