Summary of the contracting process

Bolsover District Council is procuring commercial cleaning services for its corporate properties. The contractor will clean council buildings to the required standards, delivering services consistently and safely across the Council’s estate. The scope includes the normal tasks associated with commercial cleaning, with the successful supplier expected to make reasonable allowance for all related work. This is a services contract for cleaning rather than a supply of equipment or construction works. Delivery is across Bolsover District Council’s buildings in the United Kingdom. The requirement is suited to businesses providing managed commercial cleaning, including suppliers able to organise staff, maintain consistent service quality and work safely across multiple public-sector premises.

The process has reached tender: Bolsover District Council invited offers through an open procedure. The enquiry deadline was 12 October 2026 at 12:00, and the tender submission deadline was 22 October 2026 at 12:00. The Council planned to finalise its award decision by 24 November 2026. The contract is valued at £360,000 gross. The initial contract period runs from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2028, with renewal options of one year plus one year, giving a maximum end date of 31 December 2030. Evaluation is based on price at 60%, two case studies at 20%, methodology at 5%, communication and liaison at 5%, and social value at 10%.

This opportunity suits established commercial cleaning providers able to deliver reliable, safe and consistently high-quality services across council buildings. Bidders should be prepared to demonstrate relevant experience through two case studies and explain their proposed delivery methodology. The evaluation also rewards clear arrangements for communication and liaison with the Council, together with credible social-value commitments. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so it may suit organisations of different structures and sizes where they can provide the necessary operational capacity. Suppliers with experience managing public, corporate or multi-site cleaning services will be well placed to address the requirement and evidence dependable performance.
