School cleaning services

Tender description

The successful Supplier will be required to provide cleaning services for Tewkesbury School. The contract will commence on 1.4.2018 for a period of three years, with the potential for an extension of up to a further 3 years. This contract will be fixed price in nature with the successful Supplier also guaranteeing the number of input hours to the contract as well as the quality of cleaning provision. We are seeking a suitably experienced Supplier who has current experience of working within the secondary school or HE / FE market place, ideally with a strong operational base within Central England, thus allowing for both adequate contract support and operational flexibility that is to be delivered to support the contract as and when needed during the contract term. The scope of the contract covers all of the cleaning provision within the school including all holiday and periodic cleans. The successful Supplier will be expected to deliver a concise and detailed method of management reporting at the end of each month, thus updating the senior management team within Tewkesbury School on the contract performance. The projected cost of cleaning for the first contractual year is 110 000,00 GBP. Tewkesbury School is considering converting to a multi academy trust (MAT); the MAT is expected to grow in the number of schools beyond just Tewkesbury School once formed and it is expected that more schools will become part of the MAT during this contract period. The provision of cleaning services within these schools when they have joined the MAT will fall under the scope of this contract. The successful Supplier will be expected to provide the cleaning services within these additional schools using the same costing model, ratios, etc that were applied to the successful bid for Tewkesbury School at the point of tender submission. The duration of contract for these schools will not be increased and they will join the contract for the remaining contract period that exists at the point of entry into the MAT. Please note: As stated above, further schools may be added to the contract during the tender process and during the life of the contract.
