Summary of the contracting process

Academy Transformation Trust procured the supply of cleaning materials for use across all of its sites. The requirement covers cleaning products and is classified under CPV 39830000. Delivery is required across the United Kingdom. The buyer is a public undertaking based in Birmingham. This is a goods supply opportunity rather than a cleaning-services or facilities-management contract: the commercial focus is on sourcing, holding and distributing cleaning materials to support the Trust’s estate. Businesses relevant to this requirement include manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and specialist suppliers of janitorial, hygiene and cleaning products that can serve a multi-site education organisation. The awarded supplier, Alliance Disposables, is a large company based in Crewe, indicating that the requirement was structured for an established supplier capable of serving sites nationally.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following an open competitive flexible procedure. The stated stages were a supplier questionnaire, advertisement, invitation to tender, standstill and award. One lot was awarded to Alliance Disposables on 4 August 2026. The contract was signed on 17 August 2026 and is valued at £648,051.50 excluding VAT, or £777,661.80 including VAT. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029, with two possible 12-month extensions allowing it to continue until 31 August 2031. The tender submission deadline was 21 May 2026 at 10:00, enquiries closed on 12 May 2026 at 10:00, and the planned award period ended on 1 August 2026. Evaluation weighted cost at 65%, quality at 30% and social value at 5%. Five bids were received, with one reaching the final stage.

This award is useful market evidence for suppliers of cleaning products seeking education-sector and multi-site public-sector work. A credible competitor would need to supply a broad range of cleaning materials reliably across the United Kingdom, manage distribution to multiple sites and maintain consistent product availability and service levels over a multi-year arrangement. The evaluation shows that price was the largest consideration, but quality and social value together accounted for 35% of the assessment, so suppliers would need more than a low-cost catalogue. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, although the final-stage bid data shows that neither group submitted a final-stage bid. A future competitor should therefore demonstrate competitive pricing, dependable national logistics, product quality and clear social-value delivery.
