Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for cleaning and sanitation services, including building exterior and window cleaning, has been completed by Lancaster City Council. The Council aimed to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) through a selective procurement method known as the restricted procedure. This initiative covered the North West England region, specifically the area classified as UKD. The procurement stage reached the award phase on 19th March 2026, with the contract signed on 16th March 2026. Lancaster City Council, a body governed by public law focusing on housing and community amenities, facilitated this process. The total contract value issued amounts to £307,150.40. Key aspects considered were quality (80%) and price (20%) while assessing the bids submitted.

This tender offers significant opportunities for business growth primarily within the cleaning services sector. Companies specialising in exterior, deep cleaning, and graffiti removal can find substantial business openings here. The tender process attracted competitive bids from 3 suppliers, including 2 small and medium enterprises (SMEs), evidencing the suitability for smaller enterprises to compete effectively. The selected supplier, LCD Support Services Ltd, has already secured the active contract. This focused procurement on the region's needs suggests potential repeated opportunities in similar future tenders, enabling businesses to establish a robust presence in the North West England cleaning services market.
