Summary of the contracting process

The Arts Council of England has completed the procurement process for building cleaning services at their Manchester office, located at The Hive in Manchester, UK. Categorised under building-cleaning services, this contract was awarded through a limited competition procurement method, below the threshold. The process transitioned from tender to award, culminating on 9th July 2025 with the contract active from 1st August 2025 until 31st July 2026. The contract is valued at £37,222.46 gross, and the supplier, The Floorbrite Group Ltd, is tasked with delivering comprehensive cleaning services including window cleaning and annual carpet deep cleaning.

This contract offers significant opportunities for SMEs in the cleaning industry, like The Floorbrite Group Ltd. Businesses specialising in building cleaning services, especially those capable of providing specialized services like carpet deep cleaning, are ideal candidates for similar opportunities. The limited competition under the procurement method suggests a potentially less congested market space, inviting businesses to leverage their niche service offerings to secure contracts and drive growth within the public sector. This scenario serves as a prime example for SMEs aiming to enhance their portfolio and expand their operational reach through strategic public sector engagements.
