PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of Edinburgh’s Estates Department procured period products for use across all its campuses in Edinburgh. The requirement is for the supply of sanitary products, with a sustainable approach to how products are provided. This is a goods contract, rather than a service or works project. The university is the buyer and the Estates Department manages the requirement. The products are intended for campus-wide use, so the scope covers the university’s estate rather than a single building or site. The procurement is specifically for period products (CPV 33771100), providing a recurring supply requirement for an institutional setting.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Banner Group Limited through a ranked direct award using the APUC JAN1011 cleaning and janitorial products framework, sanitary products lot. The contract was signed on 31 August 2026. Its initial period runs from 31 August 2026 to 30 August 2028, with two one-year extension options that could extend it to 30 August 2030. The recorded contract value is £700,000. One bid was received. The process data describes the procedure as open, while the award description identifies the route actually used as a ranked direct award under the framework. No award date or separate scoring or evaluation criteria are recorded.

This award demonstrates demand for a sustained supply of period products across a large university estate, with sustainability explicitly part of the buyer’s approach. Suppliers aiming to compete when this requirement returns should be able to deliver consistent campus-wide product supply and show how their products and supply arrangements support sustainable provision. The selected route used a ranked award from an established cleaning and janitorial products framework, so relevant framework access and the ability to meet its sanitary-products requirements would be commercially important. The single recorded bid indicates that only one bid was reported for this procurement; it does not establish the level of competition in the wider market. The requirement suits suppliers with the product range, distribution capability and institutional supply experience to serve multiple university campuses.
