Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The David Ross Education Trust procured routine and periodic school cleaning across four of its schools in Yorkshire and the Humber. The work covers classrooms, teaching and learning areas, offices, communal and circulation spaces, halls, dining areas, toilets and other areas identified by each school. It includes daily cleaning to maintain cleanliness, hygiene and presentation, alongside periodic and specialist cleaning required by the Trust. This is a facilities cleaning services contract focused on education premises, rather than a general cleaning requirement across unrelated property types.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Pristine Clean Services Limited. The contract was signed on 24 June 2026 and has an awarded value of £765,000. The recorded contract status is active. The Trust used a restricted procedure, with a framework agreement involved. The single lot was cancelled, although the award and contract are recorded as active. Evaluation weighted quality at 70% and price at 30%. The contract includes an option for an additional 12 months. The procurement received one bid.

The award shows demand from the Trust for a contractor able to deliver consistent daily cleaning across multiple school sites, while also managing periodic and specialist tasks. Credible competitors for this specific requirement would need operational capacity to cover four schools and varied environments, including classrooms, offices, halls, dining spaces, circulation areas and sanitary facilities. The evaluation placed substantially greater weight on quality than price, so a strong offer would need to demonstrate reliable service standards and the ability to maintain cleanliness, hygiene and presentation across each school. Experience in school or similarly busy premises, and effective planning for routine and periodic work, would be relevant strengths.
