UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Salford City Council sought the supply and delivery of cleaning and janitorial products for its council properties. This is a goods requirement covering cleaning products, with delivery across Salford City Council’s properties in the Salford area. The contract is intended for suppliers able to provide a range of janitorial and cleaning consumables and to manage their delivery to public-sector sites. The opportunity was divided into one lot and was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. Businesses specialising in commercial cleaning supplies, janitorial products, consumables distribution or public-sector supply may therefore find the requirement relevant.

The procurement reached tender: the Council invited offers through an open competitive flexible procedure. It used three stages: selection through a Selection Questionnaire and eligibility assessment; assessment against award criteria; and product testing and evaluation. Enquiries were due by 20 July 2026 at 2pm, and tender submissions by 27 July 2026 at 2pm. The contract was planned to run from 1 November 2026 to 1 November 2028, with two optional 12-month extensions available up to 1 November 2030. Its estimated value was £160,000 excluding VAT (£192,000 including VAT). Evaluation weighted quality at 47%, social value at 15%, price at 24% and product testing at 14%. The procurement was discontinued and abandoned on 22 September 2026 following a review of the process and evaluation outcomes, citing factors relating to its structure and operation.

This opportunity suited suppliers with a dependable range of cleaning and janitorial products, established distribution arrangements and the operational capacity to deliver to council properties. Businesses needed to pass the initial Selection Questionnaire and eligibility assessment before progressing to the later evaluation stages. The process then required suppliers to demonstrate product quality, social value and value for money, with submitted products subject to testing and evaluation. It was relevant to established commercial cleaning-supplies distributors, manufacturers, wholesalers and specialist public-sector suppliers, as well as smaller businesses and voluntary, community or social enterprises able to meet the delivery and product requirements. The requirement’s emphasis on product testing favoured suppliers confident in the performance and consistency of their products.
