Summary of the contracting process

The mhs homes group, a public authority within the sub-central government sector, initiated a tender process titled "Window Cleaning," which reached the completion stage but was later cancelled. This procurement targeted cleaning services across the mhs homes estate in Chatham, United Kingdom, under the industry category of accommodation and building cleaning services. The tender, identified by the reference TMHS274, had a tender period closing on 24 November 2025, with the process conducted through an open procedure on the In-Tend e-tendering system. Despite its cancellation on 27 November 2025, the decision to terminate was made to amend the Conditions of Participation, with re-issuance planned under a new reference TMHS274a.
