The contract will commence on 1st July 2026, with an initial end date of 30th June 2027 and a maximum extension possible until 30th June 2029. The process was structured to allow potential substantial variations in value based on tenant increases or employment cost changes.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those in the cleaning and sanitation industry, to expand their service offering and secure long-term contracts. The contract is well-suited for large enterprises capable of managing the Teesworks site's comprehensive needs over an extended period, with the flexibility to accommodate unforeseen changes in the scope or value.

Notice Information

Notice Title

STDL-PROC-0119 - Cleaning Services for Teesworks Site

Notice Description

Provision of cleaning and associated services across the Teesworks site, catering to both communal & commercial requirements. There is the potential that the contract value may need to be varied if there is an increase in tenant numbers on site. Currently the amount of any possible increase is unknown, as the number of tenants coming to site cannot be predicted or disclosed due to commercial sensitivity, however it may be substantial. It is the intention of the contracting authority to maintain continuity of supplier for up to 3 years under this contract for the whole site and the contract value will be varied to accommodate this. Any additional services provided will be on the same terms (including pricing) as those agreed to as part of the tendered requirement. Unexpected changes to the Minimum wage may result in increased value being allocated to the contract to cover increased employment costs. It is envisaged that the annual increase will be sufficient
