## Summary

North Northamptonshire Council has awarded a contract for building cleaning services at their Cedar Drive location, situated in the East Midlands, United Kingdom. The procurement falls under the 'services' category, specifically classified as cleaning services (CPV 90910000). Following two unsuccessful attempts to find a provider through open market competition, a direct award was made to the incumbent supplier, ATLAS FM SERVICES LTD, in accordance with Regulation 32 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The contract, valued at GBP 56,000, commenced on 1st August 2025 and will conclude on 31st July 2026. The procurement process has reached the award stage.

This contract represents a direct opportunity primarily for large enterprises like ATLAS FM SERVICES LTD, given the immediate need for continuity in service provision and the direct award method used. However, businesses in the cleaning services sector could prepare for future opportunities by monitoring the upcoming comprehensive procurement process planned for after the contract's 12-month duration, which may open up the competition to various sized firms, including SMEs and VCSEs, aiming to establish or expand their service footprint in the East Midlands region. Interested parties should note that the procurement method initially did not favour open market competition, but future tenders might present new opportunities.

## Notice

A direct award to the incumbent for cleaning of Cedar Drive for a period of 12 months. A direct award is being made in accordance with regulation 32 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, following two unsucessful attempts to procure the service through open market competition. Awarding a 12 month contract under this provision will provide the necessary time to undertake a comprehensive procurement process for a new, long term contract covering the full scope of the service.
