UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Office for Students is seeking a single contractor to provide cleaning services for its Bristol office. The aim is to maintain a safe, comfortable and hygienic environment for staff and visitors. The scope covers general cleaning; internal and external window cleaning; external cleaning of bike sheds, the smoking shelter, gutters and fascias; sanitary collection and disposal; and the supply of consumables. This is a facilities cleaning services requirement, classified under CPV 90910000. Delivery is in Bristol. The contract is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, provided they can deliver the full range of services through a single accountable contract.

The procurement has reached tender: the Office for Students invited offers through an open procedure. It is a single-lot contract. The tender and enquiry deadline set by the buyer is 7 October 2026 at 10:00. The intended award decision date is 11 November 2026. The contract period is 1 March 2027 to 28 February 2029, with renewal options of 12 months plus a further 12 months, potentially extending the term to 28 February 2031. The estimated value is £333,333 excluding VAT, or £400,000 including VAT. Bids are assessed on quality at 70% and price at 30%, with electronic submission permitted in English.

This opportunity suits commercial cleaning contractors able to manage a complete office cleaning service, rather than providers offering only a single specialist activity. Relevant capability includes routine general cleaning, internal and external window cleaning, outdoor area cleaning, gutter and fascia cleaning, sanitary waste collection and disposal, and reliable replenishment of consumables. A suitable supplier will need the operational capacity to coordinate these services for one office, maintain consistent hygiene and safety standards, and provide dependable coverage for staff and visitors. The requirement may suit an SME with an established local or regional facilities-services operation, provided it can take responsibility for all service elements and meet the quality-led evaluation basis.
