## Summary

The Crown Commercial Service (CCS), a prominent public authority within the central government of the United Kingdom, has initiated a planning phase for a substantial procurement process titled "Healthcare Soft Facilities Management (FM) Services 2". This procurement aims to establish a Pan Public Sector Collaborative Agreement, encompassing a framework of services including Waste, Catering, Linen & Laundry, Cleaning, Security, Reception, Portering, and Grounds Maintenance. This opportunity covers a wide geographical area, including the UK and several British Overseas Territories. The market engagement will be conducted over several months starting in March 2026, with an expected completion by April 2027, and the final notice set for release in May 2027. The planned contract will run from November 2027 to November 2035.

Businesses involved in healthcare and facilities management services have a significant opportunity for growth through the CCS framework. With an estimated value of £7 billion to £8.4 billion, this procurement provides substantial business prospects for suppliers specialised in soft FM services. Companies with expertise in sectors such as cleaning, catering, security, and healthcare will find substantial interest in participating. The framework encourages feedback and engagement, offering potential suppliers the chance to influence the lot structure and service delivery. Organisations across various regions including the UK, Guernsey, Isle of Man, and others within the British Overseas Territories are all viable participants in this expansive procurement initiative. Business users should consider this as an opportunity to expand their market presence and forge long-term agreements with public sector bodies.
