## Summary

The Astrea 2026 Cleaning Services Framework was initiated by Astrea Academy Trust, a public authority classified under sub-central government, located in Sheffield, United Kingdom. This procurement process focused on cleaning services for schools in South Yorkshire and Cambridgeshire, falling under the industry category of cleaning services (CPV code 90910000). The process adopted an open procurement method using a competitive flexible procedure, culminating in an award stage completed by 20 May 2026. The framework includes four completed lots, with a substantial contract value of £8.2 million, covering multiple regions, including UKE31, UKE32, and UKH12. The framework agreement has a contract period starting on 1 June 2026 and concluding on 31 May 2030, with potential renewal terms extending up to 2034.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for large-scale cleaning companies as it offers roles across multiple locations through a single framework agreement. Businesses that specialise in comprehensive cleaning services and have the capacity to handle sizeable contracts would find this tender advantageous, with potential for further growth through optional extensions. The framework facilitates collaboration among large cleaning service providers, such as Bidvest Noonan and Bulloughs Cleaning Services, offering substantial scope for enhancing regional service delivery. Companies that thrive in competitive tendering environments and can meet the rigorous quality and price criteria specified in the tender documents are well-positioned to benefit from this lucrative contract.
