Summary of the contracting process

Cirencester Kingshill School and Maidenhill School are procuring cleaning services across both school sites: Cirencester Kingshill School in Cirencester and Maidenhill School in Stonehouse, Gloucestershire. The work covers all cleaning services required within each school. Although each school has its own contract, both were to be awarded to the same supplier, subject to agreement on best value. This is a school cleaning services requirement, rather than catering services; the tender description refers to catering, but its stated scope and classification are cleaning. The arrangement therefore suits providers able to deliver comprehensive cleaning across two school premises and manage the needs of both schools under one coordinated award.

The procurement is complete and an award has been made to KGB Cleaning South West Ltd and The Green Clean (tgc) Ltd. The award is pending, with an award date of 20 October 2026. The gross awarded value is £1,155,000. The contract period is 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2029, with a renewal option described as 3+2 and a maximum extent to 31 December 2031. The schools used an open competitive flexible procedure. Six final-stage bids were received. Evaluation weighted quality at 70% and price at 30%. The contract covers the two schools’ cleaning services, with individual contracts for each school and a requirement to award both to the same supplier following best-value agreement.

This award shows demand for a coordinated school-cleaning service covering two separate sites, with separate school contracts managed through a shared supplier arrangement. Providers competing for a similar requirement would need the operational capacity to service both schools, maintain consistent cleaning standards across sites, and demonstrate strong quality alongside competitive pricing: quality carried substantially more evaluation weight than price. The award to two cleaning companies indicates the buyer selected providers in the cleaning sector, while the six final-stage bids—including five from SMEs—showed that smaller businesses also competed at this scale. A credible competitor would need to evidence dependable staffing, supervision, mobilisation and quality assurance for school environments, as well as the ability to work with both schools and deliver best value across the combined requirement.
