Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involved Uttlesford District Council as the buying organisation, and was centred around providing cleaning services for council premises. This service is classified under the "Cleaning services" category (CPV code 90910000) and is part of the services industry. It took place in the region of UKH3, with the award being confirmed on 10th April 2026. The procurement stage is marked as complete, with Churchill Contract Services Limited being the awarded supplier. The tender was procured through a limited procurement method using the KCS Cleaning Services Framework Y23005 Lot 2, without prior publication of a call for competition, due to it falling outside the standard directive scope. The contract, valued at £1.5 million, was signed on 18th December 2025, with options available to extend the agreement for up to a maximum of five years.

This tender presents a significant business opportunity, particularly for large-scale service providers specialising in cleaning services, such as Churchill Contract Services Limited. The framework agreement allows for extensions, which could mean long-term engagement and stability for businesses in this sector. Competitors in the industry looking to expand their footprint in the East of England, specifically around the Uttlesford District, can consider engaging with similar framework agreements to increase their service portfolios. This tender highlights opportunities for businesses capable of delivering comprehensive cleaning solutions to public sector entities, with the potential for sustained financial growth through strategic contracts with local authorities.
