PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Edinburgh Napier University is procuring cleaning services for Built Environment – Smarter Transformation (BE-ST). The appointed service provider will clean two BE-ST sites at 1 and 3 Watt Place, G72 0AH, in Glasgow. This is a services requirement covering routine cleaning across both locations. Edinburgh Napier University is the buyer and a central purchasing body. The work is intended for an established commercial cleaning provider able to organise and deliver services across two sites, manage suitably qualified staff and meet the stated insurance requirements. The procurement is classified under CPV 90919200, covering building-cleaning services. The requirement is a single lot and includes a potential future renewal of the service arrangement.

The procurement has reached tender: Edinburgh Napier University invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. Bids were due by 25 September 2026 at 12:00 UTC. Bid opening was scheduled for 25 September 2026 at 13:00 UTC, with evaluation beginning at that time. The contract term is two years, stated as 720 days, with one optional 12-month extension. Variants are not permitted and submissions must be in English. The buyer allows electronic payment, electronic ordering and electronic invoicing. The arrangement is recurrent, with a subsequent procurement indicated for November 2028 if the extension is not used, or November 2029 if it is used.

This opportunity suits commercial cleaning contractors with the operational capacity to service two BE-ST premises and coordinate delivery across both locations. Suppliers must be able to provide staff names and professional qualifications as part of their offer, so businesses with established workforce records and demonstrable staff-management processes are well placed. The successful provider must already hold, or commit to obtain before the contract starts, Professional Risk Indemnity insurance of £5 million, Employer’s (Compulsory) Liability insurance of £10 million and Public Liability insurance of £10 million. The requirement is therefore suited to properly insured cleaning businesses able to mobilise a qualified team and maintain consistent service standards across multiple sites.
