Summary of the contracting process

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust bought weekly cleaning services for its Aseptic and Gene suites. The requirement covered six months of recurring cleaning work in specialist healthcare facilities. The buyer is based on Wilmslow Road in Manchester, and the work is for The Christie’s Aseptic and Gene suites. The procurement is categorised as cleaning services. The requirement is relevant to cleaning contractors with experience delivering regular, controlled cleaning services in healthcare or similarly sensitive operational environments. It may also suit smaller specialist providers able to organise reliable weekly attendance and maintain consistent standards across specialist suites. The requirement was for a single service scope rather than separately described service packages, and the selected supplier was Isocleanse Ltd, based in Stockport.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. Isocleanse Ltd was selected for the single service requirement on 22 April 2026. The contract was signed on that date and runs from 22 April 2026 to 22 October 2026. Its value is £69,964 excluding VAT, or £83,956.80 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The published procurement information identifies the service and its duration, but does not set out a comparative evaluation basis or scored award criteria. This outcome shows that The Christie used a direct route for a specialist, time-limited cleaning requirement rather than inviting competing tenders. The contract covers the full requirement for the Aseptic and Gene suites.

For a supplier that did not win this contract, the award provides a clear example of The Christie’s demand for recurring cleaning in specialist clinical suites. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need to demonstrate dependable weekly service delivery, strong operational planning and the ability to work consistently in Aseptic and Gene environments. Relevant evidence would include experience cleaning healthcare facilities or other controlled, high-sensitivity settings, robust procedures for maintaining hygiene standards, trained staff and effective supervision. Suppliers should also be able to show that they can cover a defined service period without disruption and respond reliably to the requirements of a major NHS foundation trust. Isocleanse Ltd’s selection indicates that a specialist SME can satisfy this type of focused service requirement.
