Summary of the contracting process

Bassetlaw District Council procured daily and weekly cleaning services for three council buildings: The Bridge Skills Hub, Retford Enterprise Centre and Middletons Yard. The requirement covers routine cleaning across these separate sites, each of which could be awarded independently, allowing suppliers to pursue one or more buildings. The work is a public-sector cleaning services contract delivered in the Bassetlaw area of Nottinghamshire. Bassetlaw District Council is the buying organisation, with Welland Procurement managing the procurement. The opportunity is relevant to commercial cleaning contractors able to provide reliable scheduled cleaning across business, enterprise and skills-focused premises, either as a single-site service provider or with the operational capacity to cover multiple buildings.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through an open procedure. AMH Cleaning Limited was selected as the supplier for all three lots. The award was made on 30 April 2026, with an awarded value of £433,695.73 excluding VAT (£520,434.88 including VAT). The contract was signed on 1 July 2026 and runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2029, with a possible extension to 30 June 2031 at the Council’s discretion. The tender deadline was 13 March 2026, enquiries closed on 9 March 2026, and the award period ended on 20 April 2026. The original estimated lot values excluding VAT were £150,000 for The Bridge Skills Hub, £154,131 for Retford Enterprise Centre and £171,260 for Middletons Yard. Evaluation gave quality 60% and price 40%.

This award shows sustained demand from Bassetlaw District Council for scheduled cleaning across several operational buildings, with the requirement structured so a supplier can compete for individual sites or manage a multi-site service. A credible competitor would need the workforce, supervision and systems to deliver dependable daily and weekly cleaning, maintain consistent standards across different premises, and coordinate staffing and quality control across locations where more than one lot is pursued. The evaluation placed greater emphasis on quality than price, so suppliers should be able to provide strong method statements, mobilisation plans, service monitoring and responses to detailed quality questions, alongside competitive pricing. The procurement was explicitly suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that smaller local or specialist cleaning businesses can be credible competitors.
