Summary of the contracting process

The Isle of Wight Council has finalised a procurement process for the provision of beach and slipway cleaning services on the Isle of Wight under a one-year agreement. This public procurement, managed as a direct award under the threshold without competition, involves maintenance of 16 amenity beaches and 22 slipways to enhance safety and tourism. Following the Environmental Protection Act 1990, this aligns with statutory duties to ensure cleanliness and safety of coastal assets. The contract, valued at £120,000 gross, was signed on 1st March 2026, and spans from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027.

This contract presents opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in environmental maintenance and cleaning services, particularly those experienced with coastal areas. With the Isle of Wight's status as a popular tourist destination, businesses involved in enhancing recreational public access can benefit significantly by contributing to community safety and tourism appeal. Additionally, regional businesses with knowledge of the local geography would be well-positioned to offer competitive services for future re-tendering of this essential public service.
