Summary of the contracting process

Weaver Vale Housing Trust Limited is procuring office and depot cleaning services for its operations in Cheshire and the wider North West of England. The requirement covers routine cleaning and sanitation of offices, depots, buildings and accommodation, including office equipment where relevant. The procurement is classed as cleaning services, with the principal activity being office and building cleaning. The work is for the housing trust’s own office and depot estate rather than for residential cleaning services. A supplier considering similar future requirements would need to provide an organised commercial cleaning operation able to cover multiple sites across the North West, maintain consistent service standards, and manage cleaning delivery for a public-sector housing organisation.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 27 July 2026 following a below-threshold open competition. Fourteen bids were received, including five from SMEs. The single lot had an estimated value of £135,000 excluding VAT and £162,000 including VAT; its published lot value is recorded as AED 135,000 excluding VAT and AED 162,000 including VAT. Superclean (UK) Ltd was awarded the contract for £137,468.38 excluding VAT and £164,962.05 including VAT. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029, with a possible additional year by agreement, to a maximum end date of 31 August 2030. Bids were evaluated equally on price and quality, at 50% each. Enquiries closed on 22 June 2026 and tenders on 1 July 2026.

This award demonstrates established demand from Weaver Vale Housing Trust for managed office and depot cleaning across its estate, with sufficient scale to attract a large specialist cleaning company and a substantial field of competition. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable experience in office and building cleaning, the operational capacity to service multiple locations, and reliable systems for scheduling, supervision, quality assurance and performance reporting. The requirement also favours suppliers able to price competitively without weakening service quality, because price and quality carried equal weight. Firms with a strong commercial cleaning workforce, effective mobilisation arrangements, appropriate equipment and the ability to work consistently for a housing-sector client would be well placed when this type of requirement returns.
