UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Wythenshawe Community Housing Group (WCHG) is planning cleaning services for its housing and other operations in Wythenshawe, Manchester. The proposed scope spans residential cleaning; commercial cleaning, including offices; and fleet and empty homes cleaning. Work may include cleaning communal areas and specialist cleaning, windows and roofs, internal office spaces and vehicles, as well as cleaning and clearing empty homes. The buyer is consulting suppliers on the proposed scope, the way the work is divided into lots, delivery arrangements and indicative pricing. The service category is cleaning services (CPV 90910000).

This is at the planning stage: WCHG has set out its intention to procure and is undertaking preliminary market engagement, not inviting tenders. The engagement seeks supplier feedback on the proposed service scope, lot structure, delivery approach and indicative pricing. The buyer’s engagement submission deadline is 16 October 2026 at noon. The planned contract period is 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2030, with a possible extension to 31 January 2032. Three lots are proposed: residential cleaning; commercial cleaning, including offices; and fleet and empty homes cleaning. No procurement procedure, evaluation criteria or contract value is set out at this stage.

The planned work is likely to suit cleaning contractors able to deliver a mix of housing, commercial and specialist services. Suppliers with experience in communal-area cleaning, window and roof cleaning, office cleaning, vehicle fleets, and cleaning and clearing empty homes may find the proposed scope relevant. The three proposed lots could allow businesses to focus feedback on the service areas that match their operations, while suppliers covering several areas can comment on the proposed lot structure and delivery approach. WCHG is also seeking indicative pricing, so suppliers with a sound understanding of the costs and practical requirements of these services can help inform its plans. This is a preparation and market-engagement stage, rather than an invitation to bid.
