Initiated in early February 2025, with a tender period ending on 28th April 2025, the contract will formally commence on 1st September 2025 and conclude on 31st August 2028, with a potential for a 2-year extension. The procurement falls under the category of cleaning services with a total award value of £6,229,602 GBP.

The awarded contract for cleaning services offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses, especially those focused on building and window-cleaning services.
