Contract value is likely to be around PS225,000 per annum Opportunity Overview: All Saints Catholic School is an 11-18 Catholic comprehensive located in Dagenham in the Diocese of Brentwood. The school has been recognised not only for its outstanding academic success (rated outstanding at a recent Ofsted) but also for other aspects e.g. they have recently achieved the Gold Artsmark Award, Gold Equalities Award, Gold Mental Health Award, Flagship School for Inclusion Award. The school is presenting an exciting opportunity to partner with a Supplier who is able to deliver their vision of cleaning management to their circa 1100pupils and 100 staff. This tender project is seeking to appoint a Supplier whose initiative and innovation will be welcomed for the provision of cleaning services within the schools' facilities. The high-quality service levels proposed should maintain excellent standards throughout, resulting in a pleasant environment for both the pupils and staff. The school project stakeholder's aims are as follows: * Consistency of cleanliness across the school * Quality of local supervision (auditing/ training/ communication/ recruitment) * Improving communication between the service provider and school stakeholders * Upgrade of machinery and technology and review of chemicals * Disciplined reporting and adherence to the meeting cycle to assure that reactive and proactive works are prioritised and completed * Development true sense of partnership with the successful service provider The basis and rationale that the Client requires the successful Supplier to operate to at all times is being able to provide a school cleaning service that is fit for purpose and that the Supplier is proactive in the management of the contract, thus ensuring that all specifications are achieved and that the frequency of cleans is as detailed within the tender specification. The contract being tendered is for three years in duration from 1 January 2026 until end December 2028 with the option to extend upon agreement with the Client, for a further two-year period (awarded in singular years). The contract will be fixed price in nature, with the Supplier invoicing the Client for one-twelfth of the annual cost on a monthly basis, however the successful supplier will be expected to return any hours not worked to the trust. It should be noted that the successful Supplier will be expected to bring to the contract: innovation; technology; new equipment; and cleaning methods, with BICSc standards being achieved, as a minimum, thus ensuring that the highest levels of cleanliness are maintained in all areas at all times and also ensuring that the productivity of the cleaning operatives is enhanced moving forward into the new contract term. The client expects genuine rigour in developing both the relationship and meeting cycle with key stakeholders. Current Cleaning Arrangements: There is an existing onsite supervisor who assures deliver of a post school cleaning team of seventeen cleaners who currently work around 250 hours per week For more information about this opportunity, please visit the Delta eSourcing portal at: https://litmustms.co.uk/tenders/UK-UK-Essex:-School-cleaning-services./R7696946D4 To respond to this opportunity, please click here: https://litmustms.co.uk/respond/R7696946D4
