Synergy exists between catering and cleaning and by combining services will optimise service delivery through a more integrated approach, reducing management and transaction costs. This will also allow for greater flexibility to better utilise Supplier resources and deliver more effective services. Call out services such as vehicle, custody and crime scene have synergy with main cleaning services and thus provide greater operational and cost effectiveness."

Suppliers remain responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by them or by any third party acting under instructions from the Supplier in connection with taking part in this procurement process regardless of whether such costs arise as a consequence, directly or indirectly of any amendments made to the procurement documents by the Contracting Authority at any time. No legally binding contract shall arise (and a Supplier shall have no legitimate expectation that a contract will be entered into) until such time as entry into the Contract has been confirmed by the Contracting Authority."
