## Summary

Harehills Primary School bought a fully managed school cleaning service for its site on Darfield Road, Leeds, LS8 5DQ. The requirement covers routine term-time cleaning, periodic and deep cleaning, staffing, supervision, management, cleaning equipment and materials, quality assurance, and contract management. This is a school cleaning services contract (CPV 90919300), procured by Harehills Primary School for its education operations. The supplier is responsible for providing the people, resources and oversight needed to deliver the service rather than supplying cleaning products alone. Businesses with experience in end-to-end education or institutional cleaning, including the operational management of school premises, would be aligned with the requirement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a further competition under ESPO Framework 263_25, Total Cleaning Service Solutions, using a limited procedure without a separate advertised competition. Five electronic bids were received. Lark Cleaning Services Limited trading as Betterclean Services Leeds was selected, and the contract is active. The contract value is £588,557.35 including the stated currency of GBP. It was signed on 20 July 2026. The initial contract term is three years, with Harehills Primary School able to exercise two further one-year extensions at its discretion. Evaluation gave quality a 60% weighting and price 40%.

This award demonstrates established demand from Harehills Primary School for a managed cleaning operation combining routine delivery with periodic and deep-cleaning capability. A credible future competitor would need sufficient trained cleaning staff, supervisors and managers to maintain service across school terms, together with the equipment, materials and quality-control systems to deliver consistently in an education setting. Strong evidence of service management, mobilisation, inspection, reporting and contract administration would support the quality-led evaluation approach. The five bids received indicate competition among capable providers. Suppliers already operating institutional or school cleaning services, particularly those able to manage the whole service rather than isolated cleaning tasks, are best placed to pursue a comparable requirement when it next returns to the market.
