Summary of the contracting process

Torbay Council procured cleaning and security services for Fleet Walk Shopping Centre in Torquay, a retail centre with 34 shops and a multi-storey car park. The requirement covered two distinct service areas: routine and ad hoc cleaning across the shopping centre, and security services for the centre and associated facilities. This is service work delivered in Torquay, with the cleaning classification CPV 90910000 and the security classification CPV 79710000. The council is the public-sector buyer. The requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and suppliers could pursue cleaning, security, or both service areas, subject to the limit on bidding for one lot.

The procurement is complete and both lots have been awarded through an open procedure. Lot 1 cleaning was awarded to MPD FM LIMITED on 18 June 2026 for £528,981.15 excluding VAT (£634,777.38 including VAT). Lot 2 security was awarded to Kestrel Guards Limited on 18 June 2026 for £1,076,228.90 excluding VAT (£1,291,474.68 including VAT). Both contracts were signed and run from 17 August 2026 to 16 August 2029, with two optional 12-month extensions, potentially lasting until 16 August 2031. The original tender deadline was 23 March 2026 at noon, following an enquiry deadline of 2 March 2026 at noon. Evaluation weighted price at 50%, method statements at 35%, technical questions at 5% and social value at 10%.

This award shows Torbay Council’s continuing requirement for professionally managed facilities services at a substantial retail and car-park site. A credible future competitor would need operational capability in either commercial cleaning or site security, with the capacity to deliver consistent service and respond to ad hoc changes in requirements. The selection process also required relevant experience and contract examples, financial capacity, suitable insurance arrangements, and evidence covering data protection, health and safety and modern slavery. Suppliers needed relevant policies, procedures and accreditations for delivery. Social value formed part of the quality assessment, so bidders would need to demonstrate measurable wider benefits alongside a reliable service model. The requirement attracted strong competition, including bids from SMEs, indicating a market with established specialist providers.
