Summary of the contracting process

Wirral Council sought facilities management and cleaning services for the lower-ground Level 0 of Cheshire Lines Building, Canning Street, Birkenhead. The work covers general facilities management and cleaning duties and undertakings within that floor of the building. It is a service contract focused on maintaining and cleaning a defined part of a single building, rather than a wider estate. The location is Birkenhead, in the Wirral.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The procurement has since been cancelled; the published data gives no reason for the cancellation. The tender set an enquiry deadline of 18 May 2026 at 12:00 and a bid deadline of 25 May 2026 at 12:00. The contract period was set to run from 1 July 2026 to 16 May 2028, with possible extensions to 31 March 2029 and 31 March 2030. The estimated value was £240,000 excluding VAT (£288,000 including VAT). Bids were to be assessed on price (50%), quality (40%) and social value (10%). The opportunity was divided into one lot.

The requirement suits facilities management and cleaning providers able to cover a defined building area in Birkenhead, combining general facilities management duties with cleaning. Small and medium-sized businesses were identified as suitable, making this a potential fit for local or specialist operators as well as larger contractors with the capacity to service the building. Competition depended on balancing service quality and social value with price: together, these non-price elements accounted for half of the evaluation. Social value was to be assessed through the Social Value Portal, with further details in the tender documents. The published requirement does not state specific professional accreditations, staffing levels or prior experience thresholds.
