Summary of the contracting process

Livv Housing Group procured window cleaning services across sites initially in Knowsley, Merseyside. The requirement covers internal and external window cleaning for communal living properties, community centres and the Group’s offices. This is a services opportunity for a contractor able to clean windows across a varied housing and community property portfolio, including shared residential buildings and operational premises. Delivery is in the United Kingdom, with the initial area identified as Knowsley in Merseyside. The buyer is Livv Housing Group, a public authority operating at sub-central government level. The scope is focused on accommodation, building and window cleaning services, rather than construction, repairs or general facilities management.

The procurement is complete and awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was completed. The contract was signed on 4 August 2026 and awarded to W E JONES & SON (LIVERPOOL) LIMITED. The contract is active from 16 August 2026 to 15 August 2027, with a maximum possible end date of 15 August 2028. Renewal is provided for on a one-plus-one-year basis. The contract value is £200,000 gross. The selected supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise. Evaluation was conducted through the limited competition route; the published process records the service category and completed outcome, but does not state an award date or detailed scoring criteria.

This requirement is relevant to window-cleaning businesses with the operational capacity to provide both internal and external cleaning across communal housing, community centres and offices. The awarded supplier’s SME status indicates that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist business rather than only a national facilities-management provider. A credible future competitor would need practical experience of working across multiple occupied or community-facing sites, reliable scheduling and the ability to maintain consistent service standards across a housing group’s varied premises. Local knowledge of Knowsley and Merseyside could support efficient delivery, while the scope also suits established regional contractors able to mobilise staff and equipment across the buyer’s property portfolio.
