Summary of the contracting process

Wrexham County Borough Council initiated a procurement process for dry cleaning services under the title "Proc-25-317 | Dry Cleaning Services". The process, conducted under an open competition method and valued at a gross amount of £45,000, was scheduled to proceed from 1st August 2026 to 31st July 2027, with a possible extension option. The procurement was categorised within the services sector under the CPV codes for laundry washing, dry-cleaning, and drying machines. Located in the United Kingdom, specifically in the UKL23 region, the process had its tender period close by 29th June 2026. However, the tender was ultimately closed without any submissions received, as per a cancellation notice dated 1st July 2026.

This tender presented substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in laundry and dry-cleaning services, particularly those capable of demonstrating high-quality service offerings and competitive pricing. Companies, especially SMEs, could potentially benefit from this contract through enhanced regional service provision and long-term collaborations with local authorities. The procurement's focus on quality evaluation, comprising 60% of the award criteria, alongside cost considerations, indicated a clear opportunity for businesses excelling in service excellence. While the initial tender concluded without award, it highlights the potential for similar future opportunities requiring robust business capabilities within the public sector service industry, especially in sub-central government engagements.
