This procurement process is currently active, with a deadline for expressions of interest set for 31st March 2020, followed by a contract period from 2nd April 2020 to 1st October 2020. The procurement method employed is a competitive quotation under a limited process, with a contractual value between £5,000 and £15,000. Ideally, local cleaning companies are preferred to meet the urgent requirements related to the COVID-19 pandemic. This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in cleaning services, particularly those equipped to handle high turnover environments such as hospitals. Firms with experience in commercial cleaning, especially within healthcare settings, would be well-suited to respond swiftly and effectively to this urgent requirement, thereby positioning themselves advantageously in the market during a critical time. ## Notice Medical Student Room Cleaning at Watford General Hospital (West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust - WHHT) Expressions of interest are urgently requested from prospective cleaners to fulfil this requirement at Watford General Hospital. Scope of the Requirement - 24 rooms to be cleaned every day during the time slot of 8am - 11am. The communal areas can be cleaned during whichever timeframe suits the cleaning workforce. - A further 6 rooms - only required to clean bathrooms/ empty bins if left outside - Not all rooms will be used every single night (so some may not need to be cleaned on occasion) but all 24 rooms may need to be cleaned if necessary. A RED DO NOT DISTURB sign will be placed on any rooms that do not need to be cleaned each morning. - The Trust would ideally like the beds to be stripped and made but where this is not possible, cleaning staff are to strip the bed and leave the necessary linen for the room occupier to make the beds themselves. The Trust will provide linen inside a linen cupboard in the building. Responses would be greatly appreciated by close of play 31st March 2020 for an immediate start. Local cleaning companies preferred to meet this COVID-19 related urgent requirement.
