Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Southwark is planning a procurement process for "FM Soft Services - Cleaning," anticipated to commence in October 2026. This procurement falls under the services industry category, specifically cleaning services, with an estimated contract value of £15,000,000 gross. The process is currently in the planning stage, and it is set within the location of London, United Kingdom (UKI44 region). The procurement will be conducted through the Fusion 21 Workplace and Facilities Management framework, specifically Lot 2 for cleaning services, using a selective procurement method. The contract period is from 1st October 2026 to 30th September 2029, with the potential to extend until September 2031, subject to performance.

Given the substantial contract duration and extension options, companies capable of providing comprehensive, long-term cleaning solutions will find this process highly suitable to expand their operations and establish a partnership with a prominent public authority such as the Southwark Council.
