The tender falls under the services category, specifically school cleaning services. Procurement was carried out through an open, competitive flexible procedure. The contract was awarded on 3rd June 2026, following earlier stages of tender and award decisions, with contracts starting from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2029, and including potential renewals extending to March 2031. This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses in the cleaning industry, particularly those specialising in educational facilities. Companies that are adaptable, capable of scaling their operations, and can provide high-quality cleaning solutions would benefit from such contracts. Given the awarded supplier, Green Fox, an SME based in Waterlooville, future opportunities may arise for similar scale enterprises to compete effectively by focusing on operational and financial prowess as assessed in the selection criteria. The contract's structure allowing renewals contingent upon performance metrics underscores a growth potential over several years for businesses that can consistently meet or exceed service standards. ## Notice term time cleaning services for primary and secondary schools with additional cleaning to be carried out during school holidays for deep cleans ### Lot Information Durrington Multi Academy Trust 1 Secondary School and 3 Primary schools for year 1 with 4th primary joining from yr 2 onwards.
