Summary of the contracting process

City & County of Swansea is seeking a supplier to clean Swansea City Bus Station, also known as the Quadrant Bus Station. This is a cleaning services contract for the bus station in Swansea. The requirement is for a single lot, covering the cleaning service as a whole. The work is for a local authority and takes place in Swansea, Wales. Suppliers whose core business is commercial or public-sector cleaning, including facilities services providers able to deliver cleaning at a bus station, are the most directly relevant. The opportunity concerns service delivery at this named transport facility rather than the supply of cleaning products alone.

The council invited tenders through an open procedure. The procurement reached the tender stage, with offers requested electronically through eTenderWales; submissions could be made in English or Welsh. The deadline for questions was 20 November 2026 at 12:00, and the tender submission deadline was 27 November 2026 at 12:00. The stated contract period runs from 4 January 2027 to 3 January 2030, with an option to extend for up to 24 months, to a maximum date of 3 January 2032. The estimated value is £700,000 excluding VAT (£840,000 including VAT). There is one lot. Evaluation weights quality method statement answers at 40% and price at 60%. Economic and technical selection criteria are set out in the tender documents.

The opportunity is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so suppliers in those categories can consider bidding. It is best suited to organisations able to plan and deliver a sustained cleaning service at a busy public transport facility in Swansea, with the operational capacity to meet the contract requirements over the stated term and any extension. Price carries the larger evaluation weight, but bidders also need to provide persuasive method statement answers, which account for 40% of the assessment. The economic and technical participation requirements are contained in the tender documents; suppliers should check those requirements against their financial standing, relevant cleaning experience and ability to resource the service before preparing an offer.
