UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Met Office contracted frontline cleaning services for its Hillington site in Glasgow. The requirement is site-based cleaning rather than a broad environmental-services package, and the award identifies one lot covering the work. The Met Office is the buying organisation; the contract is associated with Glasgow Hillington. The service falls within cleaning services (CPV 90000000).

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The Met Office used limited competition below the applicable threshold. Glen Group Ltd was selected for the single lot and the contract was signed on 5 October 2026. Its stated contract value is £11,150.42 excluding VAT (£13,380.50 including VAT). The contract runs from 5 October 2026 to 31 January 2029. The procurement information records the award and contract outcome but does not give further detail on evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility.

For cleaning contractors, this award is evidence of demand from the Met Office for frontline cleaning at its Glasgow Hillington site. A credible competitor when this specific requirement next reaches the market would need to demonstrate the operational ability to deliver dependable, routine cleaning at a public-sector workplace, with sufficient staff and management capacity to maintain service across the contract term. The selected supplier, Glen Group Ltd, is a large cleaning business, indicating that an established provider was chosen for this requirement. The procurement used limited competition below threshold, so suppliers should be prepared for a restricted competitive route rather than assume an open tender. The opportunity is focused on cleaning at this site, not a wider estate or a broader environmental-services contract.
