## Summary

Colchester City Council, serving as the buying organisation, has concluded the procurement process for "Building Cleaning Services" under the industry category of building-cleaning services (CPV 90911200). This opportunity, valued at £3,000,000, involved a selective procurement process using a restricted procedure and covered the East of England region in the UK. The procurement reached the award stage on 7th November 2025, with contracts starting on 3rd January 2026 and ending on 31st March 2029. Contractors have the option of two one-year extensions, subject to satisfactory performance. The tender was structured into three distinct lots, allowing potential suppliers to bid on varying combinations of services across Colchester City Council, Braintree District Council, and Tendring District Council.

This award presents significant opportunities for service providers in the building cleaning industry, particularly those capable of managing large-scale contracts across multiple locations. Large organisations, as demonstrated by the successful suppliers Kingdom Cleaning Ltd, Pinnacle FM Ltd, and Juniper Pursuits Ltd, are well-suited to meet the demands of these sizeable and varied cleaning tasks. While small and medium enterprises (SMEs) might find participation challenging due to contract size, voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) could compete in this space, potentially leveraging community ties and a focus on social value outcomes.
