## Summary

Cardiff University has successfully completed the procurement process for cleaning services on its South Campus, with Bidvest Noonan (UK) Limited being awarded the contract. The procurement method followed an open procedure and was covered by Welsh devolved regulations. This contract involves out of hours cleaning and day-time janitorial services. The contract, which is in the services industry category, was signed on 2nd September 2025 and will commence on 15th September 2025 for an initial period until 31st July 2027, with potential extensions up to 31st July 2029. The total contract value is approximately £9,906,427, inclusive of all extensions. The procurement was conducted via the Find a Tender Service platform, confirming the university's commitment to transparency and competitiveness.

This contract represents a substantial opportunity for businesses in the cleaning services industry, particularly those with experience in large-scale institutional environments. The selection criteria emphasised the quality of service, client satisfaction, and safety, thereby providing growth opportunities for providers who excel in these areas. The opportunity for potential contract extensions also offers stability and continued business development over the contract period. While Bidvest Noonan (UK) Limited, a large-scale provider, has been awarded the initial contract, future tenders may present openings for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to participate, especially given Cardiff University's active encouragement of broad supplier engagement in their procurement processes.
