Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for cleaning services at Wyre Pier, Orkney Islands, was conducted by Orkney Islands Council, a regional local authority. The procurement fell under the category of general public services and was executed via an open procedure. The process reached the award stage, as of April 2025, with the contract having been signed in August 2024. The work includes maintaining public conveniences and waiting rooms to a high standard, commencing from 6 September 2024 for a span of three years, with potential for two additional one-year extensions. The procurement involved a commitment of approximately GBP 2,500 annually, culminating in a total contract value of GBP 12,500. This opportunity had an electronic submission system, with all bids due by early August 2024. The contract location is specifically at Wyre Pier within the Orkney Islands region (UKM65).

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in cleaning and facilities management services to expand their operations within the UK, specifically targeting regional authority contracts. The contract’s structured duration of three years, alongside extension possibilities, offers a stable and recurring revenue stream which could be beneficial for large-scale suppliers similar to Victoria Quinn, who was awarded the contract. Companies with experience in maintaining high standards of public amenities and familiar with electronic procurement systems would find this opportunity particularly suitable. In terms of growth, engaging with a local council contract could pave the way for future tenders and collaborative ventures, thereby promoting long-term business sustainability and market presence within public sector contracts.
