Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Wiltshire procured regional cleaning services for delivery across the United Kingdom. The requirement is classified as cleaning services and covers one regional lot. The work is a service contract intended to provide cleaning across the buyer’s operational estate, rather than the supply of goods or construction works. The awarded supplier is Solo Service Group, a large cleaning business based in Swansea. The buyer is the Police and Crime Commissioner for Wiltshire, located in Devizes. This opportunity is therefore relevant to established commercial cleaning providers with the operational reach, workforce and management arrangements to deliver a regional public-sector cleaning service for one policing-related buyer.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Solo Service Group was selected for the single regional cleaning-services lot. The contract was signed on 14 November 2018 and has a stated duration of 3,090 days. Its value is £2,697,645.35. The original tender described a 2,520-day contract period. The contract has been modified to provide a further 12-month extension until 31 August 2027; it had previously been extended for seven months until 31 August 2026. The buyer says the replacement tender was voluntarily terminated because of concerns raised by bidders. A new tender process is intended to commence in autumn 2026, for a replacement contract starting on 1 September 2027.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from the Police and Crime Commissioner for Wiltshire for regionally delivered cleaning services at substantial public-sector scale. A competitor preparing for a future requirement with this buyer would need to show reliable mobilisation and continuity across multiple operational locations, with enough trained cleaning staff, supervisors and management capacity to maintain service standards over a long contract. The successful supplier profile indicates that a large, established cleaning provider was considered suitable, so bidders should be able to evidence organisational resilience, relevant public-sector or similarly complex cleaning experience, robust quality control, and the financial and operational capacity to sustain performance. The earlier bidder concerns also indicate that future suppliers should examine the requirements carefully and raise practical delivery issues early.
