## Summary

EXCEED Academies Trust, based in Bradford, is seeking tenders for a comprehensive daily cleaning service across its locations. The contract spans three years, commencing on 13th February 2027, with potential extensions totaling two additional years. This initiative falls under the public authority category, specifically a sub-central government entity. The industry category is school cleaning services, reflecting a competitive yet selective procurement method. The procurement process, in the tender stage as of 22nd July 2026, follows a structured timeline with an expression of interest deadline on 24th August 2026 and an award announcement expected by 17th December 2026.
