Summary of the contracting process

Delta Academies Trust is seeking contract cleaning services through a framework for its academy estate across Yorkshire and the Humber. The requirement covers cleaning across the Trust’s estate and is classified as cleaning services (CPV 90910000). The Trust, based in Knottingley, is the buyer. This is a service contract rather than a purchase of goods or construction work. The framework is intended to provide contract cleaning services for the estate; the procurement is organised as a single lot covering the stated estate.

The buyer invited offers through a restricted procedure, which uses a selective process. The submission deadline set by the buyer was 27 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The planned contract period is 1,800 days, with no renewal or additional purchasing options stated. The estimated value is £2,000,000. This is a framework agreement with up to six participants. Between four and six candidates were to be invited to the second stage. Bids were to be submitted electronically in English, and variants were not permitted. The selection criteria are described in the procurement documents; suitability is identified as a selection consideration.

This opportunity is suited to suppliers able to deliver contract cleaning across an academy estate in Yorkshire and the Humber, and to operate within a multi-supplier framework. The buyer requires bidders to provide the names and qualifications of staff assigned to the work, so suppliers should be able to identify suitably qualified personnel for delivery. The second stage is limited to a small group of candidates, making relevant cleaning capability and the ability to evidence supplier suitability important to competing. The requirement spans the Trust’s estate, so suppliers should be equipped to manage work across its locations.
