Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process titled "Specialist Cleaning and Decontamination Services" was conducted by the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, serving as the contracting authority for the Greater Manchester Police. This contract, in the cleaning and sanitation services industry category, focuses on providing services for custody cells, police vehicles, and crime scenes in the Greater Manchester area. The process has progressed to the award stage, with a contract awarded to YOUR OPTION SERVICES LTD. The procurement method used was an open procedure, initiated on 6 January 2026, with key dates, including the tender period ending on 6 February 2026 and awarding documentation published on 21 April 2026. The contract commences on 1 May 2026 and is set to conclude on 30 April 2029, with the possibility of a two-year renewal.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities, especially for SMEs in the cleaning and sanitation services field, due to its specific focus on environments that require specialist knowledge, such as crime scenes and custody cells. Given the potential contract value of £180,000 and the requirements for comprehensive service provision across a substantial regional policing area, businesses with expertise in decontamination or cleaning with a niche capability can find a competitive advantage. As eight out of nine final-stage bids were from SMEs, it highlights that smaller enterprises, particularly those with the capacity to deliver high-quality, responsive services, are well-positioned to compete for such opportunities.
