## Summary

Viewpoint Housing Association intends to procure communal cleaning services for social housing developments, covering more than 40 sites and the association’s main office. The service includes cleaning shared communal areas and window cleaning. The work is associated with accommodation, building and window cleaning services (CPV 90911000) and is categorised as a service procurement. Delivery is in Edinburgh. This will suit contractors that provide routine cleaning across multiple residential developments and office premises, with the operational ability to include window cleaning as part of the service. The requirement is focused on maintaining shared spaces in social housing rather than cleaning individual homes or supplying cleaning products alone.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the buyer has stated an intention to procure but has not invited tenders. The expected procedure is an open, single-stage process, with one planned lot covering the full requirement. The estimated total value is £325,000 including the stated currency of GBP. Viewpoint Housing Association’s indicative date for the next notice is 2 November 2026. That date is the buyer’s expectation rather than a deadline for responses at this stage. The procurement is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. Businesses should use the planning period to assess their capacity for a multi-site cleaning contract and prepare for the later competition.

The procurement should interest established commercial cleaning contractors with experience in social housing, apartment blocks or other multi-site residential environments. Suitable suppliers are likely to have enough trained staff, supervisors and equipment to service more than 40 developments alongside a main office, while maintaining consistent standards across dispersed locations. Experience managing communal areas is particularly relevant, including entrances, corridors, stairs, lifts and other shared facilities, although the requirement does not describe a detailed task schedule. Contractors will also need to provide window cleaning within their service capability, either through their own trained teams or an appropriate delivery arrangement. The planning stage gives suppliers time to review their operational coverage and readiness.
