UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Town and Country Housing is seeking a contractor to provide full window-cleaning services for 18 blocks with varying numbers of windows. The work must follow specification document 4a and operate on a six-weekly cleaning rota. The requirement covers properties in the south-east of England. This is a recurring, operational cleaning service rather than a one-off installation or supply contract, and is suitable for businesses specialising in commercial, residential or housing-estate window cleaning. The procurement is categorised as a service, with the relevant classification being window-cleaning services. The successful supplier will be responsible for delivering the scheduled cleaning service across the blocks and managing the work in line with the stated specification and rota.

The procurement has reached tender: Town and Country Housing invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Enquiries had to be submitted by 18 September 2026 at 5:00pm, and offers by 2 October 2026 at 3:00pm. Electronic submission was allowed. The contract is scheduled to run from 6 November 2026 to 5 November 2027, with a maximum end date of 5 November 2031. Its estimated value is £150,000 excluding VAT, or £180,000 including VAT. The renewal arrangement is described as two years plus two years. There is one package of work. Evaluation is weighted 60% to quality questions and 40% to the full price schedule.

This opportunity suits a window-cleaning contractor able to deliver a planned service across a housing portfolio rather than isolated domestic jobs. Bidders need the workforce, equipment, supervision and scheduling capability to service 18 blocks on a six-weekly rota, while accommodating different numbers of windows at each location. The work requires reliable operational capacity across the south-east and the ability to follow the buyer’s detailed specification. Quality carries greater weight than price, so suppliers should be prepared to explain how they will organise delivery and answer the quality questions in the tender documents. The opportunity is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it relevant to established regional specialists as well as larger facilities or cleaning providers with suitable window-cleaning experience.
