## Summary

Cambridge City Council, a regional or local authority, is seeking suppliers for a tender related to housekeeping and building cleaning services for void properties. This procurement process, categorised under 'Cleaning services' (CPV 90910000), involves an open procedure method and is split into two lots: Lot 1 – Emergency & Temporary Housing Stock and Lot 2 – General Void Properties. Suppliers are invited to bid on one or both lots. The tender was published on 27 November 2023, and the submission deadline is 8 January 2024. Contract periods are set for 1800 days with potential renewals. The total contract value is estimated at £750,000. Key contacts at Cambridge City Council include Miss Lesley-Ann George and Mr Jonathan Loneza. The procurement process has reached both the tender and award stages, with ServiceMaster (CS Mid Anglia) selected as the active supplier for one of the lots, as of 26 June 2024.

This tender presents significant business opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in cleaning services. Suppliers experienced in rapid turnaround cleaning within residential housing contexts will find this contract particularly well-suited. The inclusion of TUPE considerations indicates a need for suppliers to factor in existing staffing arrangements, providing an opportunity for already established firms to expand their operations or enter new markets within the Cambridge region. Businesses efficient in managing multiple lots simultaneously with competitive pricing strategies could significantly benefit from established and recurring procurement cycles.
