Summary of the contracting process

B3 Living is procuring a single-supplier service for keyholding and office cleaning. The requirement combines secure keyholding duties with routine building-cleaning services, covering the anticipated demand under the contract. B3 Living is a public-sector housing organisation based in Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire. The service is intended to support the organisation’s offices and premises in its operating area. Businesses relevant to this requirement include commercial cleaning companies able to provide both office-cleaning operations and keyholding or site-security support through one managed service. The procurement is categorised as services, with the cleaning element covering general cleaning and building cleaning. The requirement was structured as one lot and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The procurement is complete and has reached the award stage. B3 Living used an open procedure, with bids evaluated on 60% price and 40% quality. The submission deadline was 29 May 2026 at 17:00, and the award decision was scheduled for completion by 30 June 2026. The contract was awarded on 29 July 2026 to Clean Green Cleaning Services for up to £200,000 gross. The award is recorded as pending, with the standstill period ending on 10 August 2026 at 23:59. The planned contract period is 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2030. Twenty-two bids reached the final stage, including six from SMEs. Contract signature was scheduled for 23 August 2026.

This award demonstrates established demand from B3 Living for a combined keyholding and office-cleaning service delivered by one supplier. A future competitor would need to show that it can manage both elements consistently, rather than offering cleaning alone: this means dependable building-cleaning resources, controlled access to premises, secure handling of keys, and clear arrangements for responding to keyholding responsibilities. The evaluation placed greater emphasis on price than quality, so suppliers would need a commercially competitive operating model while still evidencing reliable service delivery, supervision, continuity and quality controls. The competition attracted 22 final-stage bids, six from SMEs, indicating that the requirement can be contested by smaller providers with sufficient operational capacity. Clean Green Cleaning Services was identified as the successful supplier.
