## Summary

The University of the West of Scotland has completed the procurement process for providing cleaning services at student residences located at its Paisley and Ayr campuses. The tender was conducted under an open procedure and covered two lots, titled "Lot 1 Ayr" and "Lot 2 Paisley", with services required including deep cleaning, sparkle style cleaning, emergency cleaning, and bed-making. This contract falls within the education industry category and is managed from Paisley, UKM83 region. The award process commenced on 8 December 2025, with the contracts signed subsequently on 10 March 2026, indicating completion of the tender stage.

The contract offers significant business growth opportunities, particularly for companies in the facilities management or cleaning services sector. As the procurement method was open, large-scale maintenance businesses with a focus on quality and competitive pricing were particularly well-placed to secure the contract, evidenced by Caledonian Maintenance Services' success in winning both lots. With the contract value totalling over £728,000, businesses capable of delivering services to large educational institutions can leverage this opportunity to enhance their market presence and diversify their service offerings. The project demands flexibility and responsiveness to service requirements, favouring organisations capable of tailoring their operations to meet varied cleaning needs.
