## Summary

The procurement process for the "263B_25 Cleaning Decontamination Systems and Services" framework, led by ESPO, a procurement service based in Leicester, England, has recently concluded at the award stage. This initiative falls under the goods category and is primarily focused on providing decontamination systems and services across the United Kingdom. The contract, valued at £20 million, covers hydrogen peroxide and ultraviolet-based decontamination systems and services. The open procurement method was employed to invite tenders, and the framework is set to run from 1st May 2025 to 31st December 2026, with the contract award being published on 28th May 2025. Lots 1A and 1B are awarded on a national level, while Lots 1C and 1D are regional. This framework agreement offers an option to extend for an additional 24 months, ensuring a comprehensive national solution across various UK regions.

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses looking to expand within the decontamination industry. With both the hydrogen peroxide and ultraviolet decontamination solutions involved, businesses specializing in these areas can benefit. Companies categorised as SMEs or VCSEs are particularly well-suited to participate, providing versatile solutions to public bodies including NHS and emergency services. The open procedure allows a wide range of suppliers to engage, promoting competitive participation. Awarded suppliers include CK Facilities Management Ltd, Ecolab Limited, and several other SMEs, highlighting the diverse opportunities available for both large and small enterprises to contribute and grow through this national initiative.

## Notice

The framework intends to provide a national solution that offers customers a range of decontamination systems and services. The framework is split into the following Lots: * Lot 1A - Hydrogen Peroxide Vapour (HPV) Decontamination Systems * Lot 1B - Ultraviolet-C (UVC) Decontamination Systems * Lot 1C - Hydrogen Peroxide Vapour (HPV) Decontamination Services * Lot 1D - Ultraviolet-C (UVC) Decontamination Services Lots 1A and 1B will be awarded on a national basis. Lots 1C and 1D will be awarded on a regional basis. The framework agreement has the option to extend for up to a further 24 months. The total estimated value stated includes the option period. ESPO shall monitor the financial stability of the awarded suppliers during the period of the framework agreement by reference to credit rating agency reports. ESPO shall obtain a credit score for the supplier on or before the framework start date as a base score and where a significant change in the credit score is identified over the life of the Framework Agreement, ESPO reserves the right to investigate the reasons for this significant change. Depending on the severity of the changes, it will be at the sole discretion of ESPO to suspend or even permanently remove the Supplier from the Framework Agreement. Additional information: As a Central Purchasing Body as defined in the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, the Framework Agreement is open for use by Public Bodies (defined at https://www.espo.org/amfile/file/download/file/9608/) that also fall into one of the following classifications of user throughout all administrative regions of the UK: Local Authorities; Educational Establishments (including Academies); Central Government Departments and Agencies; Police, Fire & Rescue and Coastguard Emergency Services; NHS and HSC Bodies, including Ambulance Services; Registered Charities; Registered Social Landlords; The Corporate Office of the House of Lords, The Corporate Officer of the House of Commons; or any public body established by or under the Scotland Act 1998 or any Act of the Scottish Parliament. Details of the classification of end user establishments and geographical areas are available at: https://www.espo.org/legal. ESPO has established a commercial trading company, ESPO Trading Limited, whose target clients are third sector organisations such as national and local charities, public sector mutual organisations and other organisations involved in the delivery of services to or for the public sector. The successful Supplier may be asked to enter into an additional separate framework agreement (the Second Framework) with ESPO Trading Limited on materially similar terms to that found in the tender pack to be entered into by ESPO itself. Any Second Framework agreement will be a purely commercial agreement and will, for the avoidance of doubt, not be governed by the Public Contract Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. ESPO Trading Limited may enter into the second framework agreement with the successful supplier and make it available to third sector clients who themselves are not required to follow the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. Accordingly, this is provided for bidders information only. An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the Framework Agreement.
