Summary of the contracting process

Wrexham County Borough Council sought a laundry and dry-cleaning service for mechanics’ workwear and workshop mats. The contractor would collect soiled overalls and mats and return them clean, with collection and delivery taking place together on a weekly visit after the initial collection. The estimated weekly workload was 10 to 40 sets of mechanics’ PPE overalls and four workshop mats. The specific weekday and visit time were to be agreed at contract award and kept consistent throughout the contract. Visits were to take place Monday to Friday between 09:00 and 15:00. The service was for the Council in Wrexham, Wales.

The Council invited tenders through an open competition. It has since withdrawn the procurement and will not proceed with the tender process at this time. The enquiry deadline was 6 August 2026 at 09:00, and the tender submission deadline was 10 August 2026 at 09:00. The contract was scheduled to run from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027, with an option to extend by up to 24 months in 12-month increments. The estimated value was £37,500 excluding VAT (£45,000 including VAT). There was one lot. Evaluation was based on quality, weighted at 60%, and price, weighted at 40%; the highest quality score and lowest price each received the maximum available score.

This opportunity suited laundry and dry-cleaning businesses able to handle recurring workwear and workshop-textile cleaning for a public-sector customer. Suppliers needed capacity to process an estimated 10 to 40 sets of mechanics’ overalls and four mats each week, and to provide dependable weekly collection and delivery together on the same visit. The service required reliable weekday logistics in Wrexham, with visits within the 09:00–15:00 window and a consistent schedule agreed for the contract. The Council marked the lot as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so it was not limited to large providers. Quality responses and the pricing schedule were the basis for comparing bids. However, the Council has withdrawn the procurement and will not proceed with this tender process at this time.
