## Summary

The procurement process involves the Eastbourne Borough Council, which is inviting tenders for the "Lewes District Council and Eastbourne Homes Ltd Cleaning Services - Communal Areas Contract". This project falls within the cleaning services industry category and is located in the South East of England. The procurement is currently in the Award stage, with a total contract value of £2,000,000 over an initial five-year period, alongside an option for up to five additional one-year extensions. The deadline for submissions was 26th May 2017, with the contract period starting on 29th September 2017 and running until 28th September 2027.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in cleaning services, particularly those capable of delivering value-for-money solutions tailored to the needs of local authorities. Companies that can demonstrate efficiency and quality in communal area cleaning within the public sector could benefit from this contract, especially those with the capacity to manage large-scale operations across multiple locations. Given the procurement's open procedure, it is suitable for a range of suppliers, but those equipped to handle the specific requirements of both Lewes District Council and Eastbourne Homes Ltd will be at a distinct advantage.

## Notice

This Procurement is being managed via the SE Shared Services Portal all documents and Clarifications must be submitted via the portal at: https://www.sesharedservices.org.uk/esourcing As part of closer working together between Lewes District Council and Eastbourne Borough Council (including Eastbourne Homes Ltd) tenders are invited for its Cleaning Services - Communal Areas. Eastbourne Homes Ltd is wholly owned by Eastbourne Borough Council and subject to the Council's Contract Procedure Rules and the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. This contract will be let using the Open procedure for an initial period of five years with an option to extend for up to a further 5 years via five 1 year extension periods. There is a requirement to demonstrate value for money to leasehold residents in each of the two Authorities under section 20 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 (as amended by S151 of the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002) which set out the precise procedures landlords must follow. The contract will therefore be procured as two lots (Lewes District Council and Eastbourne Homes Ltd) to ensure the cost of providing cleaning services for each authority are accounted for separately. It is recognised that this may result in the award to two different contractors. The current contract spends are circa PS190k per annum and economies of scale are sought, notwithstanding the requirements for two lots.
