Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust procured external window cleaning and spiking services for the C&D Block. This is a building-maintenance and specialist cleaning requirement, covering external windows and the installation or maintenance of anti-spiking measures. The work is associated with the Trust’s hospital facilities in Cambridge. The service is classified under CPV 90911000, covering accommodation, building and window cleaning services. The requirement was organised as a single package for the Trust, which is the public-sector organisation using the service. It will suit suppliers with the ability to manage external cleaning safely on healthcare premises, alongside the practical capability to deliver the specified spiking services as one combined facilities-support requirement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded, with Beacon Support Services (Europe) LLP selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 10 September 2026 and runs from 16 September to 15 December 2026. Its value is £27,807 excluding VAT, or £33,368.40 including VAT. The process was a below-threshold tender using a procurement method recorded as unknown. It covered one lot, which is complete, and the award is active. The published information records the contract as below the relevant threshold. The award concerns services rather than goods or works, and the contract is for the full combined requirement rather than separate awards to multiple suppliers.

This requirement shows a hospital trust buying a combined external window-cleaning and spiking service from a small and medium-sized enterprise. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need established delivery capability for external window cleaning, with suitable equipment, trained operatives and effective control of work around an operating healthcare environment. It would also need practical expertise in spiking services, so that both elements can be delivered through one accountable service arrangement. Relevant experience of working safely on hospital or other complex public buildings, reliable scheduling, competent supervision and proportionate health-and-safety systems would strengthen a supplier’s position. The opportunity indicates demand for a focused facilities-services provider able to deliver a short, defined package rather than a broad estates-management contract.
