## Summary

The University of Portsmouth Higher Education Corporation procured janitorial supplies for its buildings and services in Portsmouth. The requirement covers essential toilet rolls, hand soap and waste bags, supporting statutory hygiene standards and day-to-day operations. It is a goods supply requirement rather than a cleaning or facilities-management service. The procurement was arranged as a short-term agreement while the university explored the market for a longer-term solution. The delivery location is Portsmouth, in the United Kingdom. The requirement is therefore relevant to suppliers of washroom consumables, hygiene products and commercial janitorial supplies with the ability to provide regular deliveries to a university estate. It may also interest distributors and wholesalers supplying institutional or public-sector customers with essential consumables.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. One completed lot covered the requirement. CJS Portsmouth Limited was awarded the contract on 3 August 2026. The contract was signed on the same date and runs from 3 August 2026 to 2 February 2027. Its value is £75,000 excluding VAT and £90,000 including VAT. The contract is active. The award covers the supply of toilet paper, with the wider requirement also including hand soap and waste bags. The selected supplier is CJS Portsmouth Limited, a Portsmouth-based small or medium-sized enterprise. The procurement used a short-term arrangement intended to maintain essential supplies during exploration of a longer-term solution.

This award shows that the University of Portsmouth buys essential washroom and waste consumables for its operational buildings through a below-threshold direct route, with a short-term requirement of institutional scale. A credible future supplier would need dependable access to toilet rolls, hand soap and waste bags, reliable stockholding and distribution, and the capacity to maintain continuity of supply for statutory hygiene needs. Local or regional distributors may be well placed, particularly those already serving universities, public bodies, offices or other multi-building estates. The award to a Portsmouth-based SME also indicates that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist supplier, provided it can offer responsive service, consistent product availability and practical delivery arrangements for the university’s Portsmouth operations.
