## Summary

United Learning Trust procured cleaning services for Newstead Wood School, at Avebury Road, Orpington, Kent, BR6 9SA. The requirement covers routine cleaning at the school and is classified as cleaning services (CPV 90910000). It is a services contract delivered at the school site, so relevant suppliers are those able to organise and manage regular cleaning operations in an education setting. The procurement was arranged by United Learning Trust, an education organisation based in Peterborough. The requirement was structured as a single lot for cleaning services at Newstead Wood School, with an option to extend the initial service arrangement in yearly increments.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Ridge Crest Cleaning Ltd was selected as supplier following a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition; the stated rationale is that competition was undertaken through a dynamic purchasing system. Ten bids were recorded for the lot. Cost was the stated evaluation criterion, with a weighting of 40. The contract was signed on 20 August 2026 for £1,070,101.70. The original service period was three years, with an option to extend through two additional 12-month periods. The lot itself is recorded as cancelled, while the award and contract are active, indicating that the procurement outcome proceeded through the awarded contract.

This outcome demonstrates substantial demand from an education-sector buyer for managed cleaning services at a school site. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to show the operational capacity to deliver consistent, site-based cleaning across a school environment, with suitable staffing, supervision, scheduling and quality control. The evaluation placed material emphasis on cost, so suppliers would need a competitive and clearly evidenced pricing model alongside dependable service delivery. The route to market was a dynamic purchasing system, making familiarity with DPS participation and the ability to respond efficiently to structured competitions commercially important. Experience of working in schools or comparable occupied public buildings would strengthen a supplier’s position, particularly where safeguarding, reliability and minimal disruption are central to performance.
