## Summary

The North Western Universities Purchasing Consortium (NWUPC) has concluded a public procurement process to establish a new multi-provider framework agreement for Washroom Services and Period Dignity Solutions, succeeding a previous agreement. With a procurement value of £14 million, it will be active from 1st May 2025 to 30th April 2029, covering various regions including the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, and others worldwide. This framework agreement, divided into 14 lots, focuses primarily on hygiene services under the industry category of cleaning and sanitation, with an open procurement method used during the tendering stage that concluded on 17th December 2024.

This procurement offers a significant business growth opportunity, especially for firms specialising in hygiene and sanitation services, disposable medical consumables, or personal care products. The framework caters to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), promoting inclusivity in the bidding process. Suitable business contenders that can deliver services across various locations included in the lots would greatly benefit from competing within this substantial industry framework, creating opportunities for expanding market presence and establishing long-term contracts. The chosen suppliers such as Personnel Hygiene Solutions Limited and Rentokil Initial UK Ltd demonstrate the framework's appeal and capacity for sustained business partnerships.
