Summary of the contracting process

The Met Office procured frontline cleaning services for its Belfast site. The requirement falls within commercial cleaning and environmental services and was focused on the Belfast location. The contract was awarded to MACclean (ni) Ltd. This is a site-specific facilities service rather than a wider cleaning programme; the published scope describes frontline cleaning at the Belfast site, without further task-level detail.

The procurement was completed through a below-threshold limited competition, with one lot. The Met Office selected MACclean (ni) Ltd and signed the contract on 3 February 2026. The stated contract period ran from 3 February 2026 to 31 January 2029. Its value was £19,760 excluding VAT (£23,712 including VAT). The contract was subsequently terminated by mutual agreement; delivery ended on 2 April 2026, and the recorded final value was £0. No evaluation criteria or scoring basis are stated in the published procurement data.

The award shows demand from the Met Office for frontline cleaning at its Belfast site, delivered through a limited competition below the applicable threshold. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to demonstrate the operational capacity to provide dependable cleaning at a single site, together with relevant commercial cleaning experience and the ability to meet the Met Office’s site-level service needs. MACclean (ni) Ltd, recorded as an SME, was selected for this contract. The recorded termination and zero final value mean the award does not demonstrate completed paid delivery; suppliers should treat it as evidence of the requirement, not proof of an established service outcome.
