## Summary

Reading Borough Council, located in Reading, United Kingdom, has recently awarded a contract for its "Cleaning Partners 2026" tender process, part of the cleaning services industry. The award, made via an open procurement procedure, was granted to N-VIRO LIMITED with a contract valued at approximately £8.6 million, starting from 1st October 2026 and extending up to September 2029, with potential renewals extending to September 2031. This process, initially announced on 20th April 2026, reached completion on 6th July 2026, ensuring rigorous market testing and alignment with the Council's objectives of maintaining safe and sustainable environments under inflationary pressures.

This tender offers significant business growth opportunities, especially for SMEs in the cleaning services sector. The consolidation of cleaning and consumables under a single contract fosters improved compliance and strategic commercial control. Companies capable of providing efficient, cost-effective, and innovative solutions for hygiene maintenance will particularly benefit. The contract also emphasizes TUPE considerations, offering stability for employees transitioning under new management. Engaging in such public tenders can provide companies strong footholds in achieving long-term partnerships with government entities.

## Notice

The current cleaning services arrangement is due to end in September 2026, and a compliant procurement process is required to ensure continuity of service, test the market, and put in place a modern, value for money contract. The new contract will support safe, hygienic, and well maintained buildings and reflect an updated delivery model, which includes TUPE implications for relevant staff. As part of this procurement, the scope will also include supply of cleaning consumables. Bringing cleaning services and consumables into one tender will strengthen commercial control, improve compliance, and enable better value for money. Re procurement is necessary given inflationary pressures and the need to maintain services within available budgets. This work aligns with the Council Plan and service objectives by supporting clean, safe, and sustainable environments; ensuring the estate remains fit for purpose; and driving efficiency and continuous improvement across services.
