Summary of the contracting process

Fusion School Services Limited procured cleaning materials and janitorial supplies for delivery in the South West of England. The range includes floorcare, washroom, kitchen and catering, laundry and general cleaning chemicals; concentrated cleaning products; janitorial equipment; paper products; personal protective equipment; waste-management consumables; and cleaning accessories and related consumables. This is a goods supply requirement covering products used to support routine cleaning and janitorial operations. Supply is non-exclusive: Fusion School Services can obtain equivalent goods from other suppliers, so the awarded supplier does not have sole rights to meet the buyer’s demand.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to AUK Supplies Limited, trading as AUK Hygiene. The award was made on 1 August 2026 through a selective procedure under a framework. The awarded value is £450,000 excluding VAT (£540,000 including VAT). The signed contract runs from 12 October 2026 to 31 August 2028, with two optional 12-month extensions, potentially extending the term to 31 August 2030. The requirement was divided into one lot. The published data gives no evaluation criteria. The awarded contract is active.

For suppliers preparing for a future requirement from Fusion School Services, the award shows demand for a broad, recurring range of cleaning chemicals and consumables, janitorial equipment and related supplies, rather than a single product line. A credible competitor would need to source and supply products across floorcare, washroom, catering, laundry and general cleaning, alongside paper goods, PPE, waste consumables and accessories. The range points to a need for dependable fulfilment across diverse routine operational requirements. The existing arrangement is non-exclusive, so equivalent goods may also be bought from other suppliers. The selected supplier is an SME, demonstrating that a smaller business can serve this requirement; the procurement data does not identify particular accreditations or technical qualifications as factors in the award.
