Summary of the contracting process

Sheen Mount Primary School is procuring comprehensive school cleaning services for its existing facilities in West Temple Sheen, Richmond Borough, London. The requirement covers all cleaning across approximately 3,041 square metres, excluding the premises manager’s house and swimming pool. Services currently include cleaning from Monday to Friday and additional deep cleaning during school holiday periods. The school serves 603 students and has 71 teaching and support staff, so the contractor will operate in an occupied education setting. The buyer is Sheen Mount Primary School, which is seeking a contractor able to maintain and develop cleaning services while supporting the school’s values and principles. The relevant service category is school cleaning services (CPV 90919300).

This completed procurement used an open competitive flexible procedure with one lot, and the award outcome records Purgo Supply Services Limited as the selected supplier. The award is pending, with an award date of 17 July 2026 and a gross awarded value of £189,759. The contract period is 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029. A standstill period ends on 18 August 2026, with contract signature scheduled for 19 August 2026. Six bids reached the final stage, including three from SMEs. Evaluation weighted quality at 70% and price at 30%; the school was not obliged to accept the lowest price. The tender’s response deadline was 12 June 2026 at noon, and enquiries closed on 16 April 2026 at noon. The current contract value was £63,253 plus VAT for April 2025 to April 2026.

This procurement shows sustained demand from Sheen Mount Primary School for a specialist education cleaning contractor able to deliver reliable daily cleaning and periodic deep cleaning across a substantial school site. A credible future competitor would need the operational capacity, trained staff and management systems to clean approximately 3,041 square metres around the school calendar, including holiday periods and the 190 days when pupils are present. Quality was the dominant evaluation factor, so evidence of service improvement, initiative and innovation would matter alongside price. Suppliers would also need to demonstrate how their delivery approach supports the school’s values and principles. The lot was identified as suitable for SMEs, making it relevant to established regional cleaning businesses as well as larger providers with education-sector capability.
