## Summary

The University of the West of England procured cleaning agency staff to cover vacant areas within its cleaning services. The requirement was for personnel providing domestic help and commercial or industrial cleaning work, including temporary staffing to maintain cleaning operations while vacancies were covered. The buyer is the University of the West of England, based in Bristol, and the service relates to its operations there. This is a services procurement focused on supplying cleaning workers rather than cleaning products, equipment or a facilities-management contract. The requirement was arranged as a single lot and was linked to framework reference PFB4037 SU. The awarded supplier was Adecco UK Limited, a large staffing business.

This procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. The University used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Adecco UK Limited was selected as the supplier for the cleaning agency staff requirement. The contract was signed on 6 August 2026 and runs from 7 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £40,000 excluding VAT, or £48,000 including VAT. The tender and single lot are complete, while the award remains active. The published process does not set out a competitive evaluation exercise; the route used was a below-threshold direct award without competition. The requirement covers the supply of domestic help personnel and commercial or industrial workers for the University's cleaning services.

This award is relevant to businesses that supply temporary or agency cleaning personnel, particularly workers able to undertake domestic-help duties and commercial or industrial cleaning work. A credible competitor for a future requirement from this buyer would need access to a dependable workforce, the ability to cover vacancies promptly and the operational capacity to supply staff across an ongoing cleaning service. Experience supplying contingent labour to universities, campuses or other large organisations would help demonstrate suitability, although the procurement does not publish specific accreditation, qualification or staffing requirements. The incumbent is a large staffing business, indicating that the buyer accepted a supplier able to provide an established recruitment and workforce-supply operation rather than a small ad hoc placement service.
