Summary of the contracting process

Southern Housing procured cleaning services through a dynamic purchasing system, focused on window cleaning for housing and other residential properties in London. The requirement covers external window cleaning at heights up to and over 75 feet, together with internal window cleaning in high-rise buildings. The service falls within cleaning and sanitation services. Southern Housing is the buyer and acts as a central purchasing body. The awarded supplier, Four Corners Cleaners Ltd, is a small or medium-sized enterprise based in Newport. The work therefore suits specialist window-cleaning contractors with the equipment, trained staff and safety arrangements needed for high-rise and high-level access work in London.

The procurement has reached completion. It used a selective restricted procedure within a dynamic purchasing system. The requirement was evaluated on quality, weighted at 60%, and price, weighted at 40%. One electronic bid was recorded, submitted by an SME. Four Corners Cleaners Ltd was awarded the contract on 20 May 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract value is £466,688.64 including the published contract value in GBP. The contract is active. The process records one lot for the window-cleaning requirement; that lot is marked cancelled even though the related award and contract are active, so the award and signed contract represent the recorded outcome.

This award indicates established demand from Southern Housing for specialist window-cleaning services covering high-rise interiors and external windows at substantial height. A credible future competitor would need proven capability in high-level and high-rise window cleaning, including suitable access equipment, trained operatives, site risk assessment and robust health and safety controls. Experience delivering comparable work across housing properties would help demonstrate operational reliability, particularly where access, resident safety and scheduling are important. Suppliers should also be able to present strong quality evidence alongside competitive pricing, because quality carried greater weight than price in this evaluation. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that a smaller specialist business can meet the buyer’s requirements at this scale.
