UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Community Housing Group Ltd procured communal window-cleaning services for its housing in the Wyre Forest area, including cleaning gutters and canopies. This is building and window cleaning work, delivered in Worcestershire. The requirement is for shared areas of residential properties rather than individual household window cleaning. The buyer is a community housing provider, so suppliers with experience organising regular cleaning across housing sites are relevant. The service also covers associated external features, meaning a suitable contractor needs to handle gutter and canopy cleaning alongside windows. The procurement was structured as a single lot and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to S J Cleaning (Midlands) Limited. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026 and runs from 18 September 2026 to 17 September 2029, with an option to extend by a further two years and seven months. The maximum stated extent is 17 April 2032. The signed contract value is £149,656.31 including tax. The original estimated value was £114,000 including tax. This was a below-threshold open competition. Bids were assessed on qualitative responses (50%), social value (10%) and price (40%). The tender closing deadline was 28 May 2026 at 5pm, and the deadline for clarification questions was 1 May 2026 at 5pm.

This award shows demand for recurring communal cleaning across a community housing provider’s property portfolio, combining window cleaning with gutter and canopy work. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need the operational capacity to plan and deliver scheduled visits across multiple housing sites, maintain consistent service standards and respond effectively to the buyer. The contract’s performance measures covered visits against schedule, communication, customer satisfaction, scheme inspections, health and safety, and environmental sustainability. Suppliers should therefore be able to evidence reliable scheduling, site inspection and quality-control processes, strong customer communication, safe working practices and attention to environmental performance. The competition also gave material weight to qualitative responses and social value alongside price, so a supplier would need to demonstrate service quality and meaningful social-value delivery, not simply offer a competitive price.
