Description
London Universities Purchasing Consortium (LUPC) has established a multi-supplier Framework for the provision of security services, cleaning services, and combined security and cleaning services. The framework supports eligible members in procuring high-quality, compliant, and cost-effective services across a variety of environments, including education, research, healthcare, cultural, and wider public sector settings. The framework is structured into three Lots: Lot 1 - Security Services Covers the provision of staffed security services, including but not limited to static guarding, mobile patrols, keyholding, alarm response, CCTV monitoring, and event security. Services may be required at sites with varied operational requirements and risk profiles. Lot 2 - Cleaning Services Encompasses the delivery of general, periodic, and specialist cleaning services. This includes deep cleaning, high-level cleaning, window cleaning, and cleaning in specialised environments such as laboratories or clinical areas. Related waste and hygiene management activities may also be included. Lot 3 - Combined Security and Cleaning Services Designed for members requiring integrated delivery of both security and cleaning services. This Lot enables combined service provision under a single contract or coordinated management model, supporting streamlined operations and improved service continuity where appropriate. The framework will provide a compliant route to market that promotes quality, value for money, sustainability, and social value.

Framework
Maximum percentage fee charged to suppliers
1%
Further information about fees
A framework levy will apply under this agreement. The Supplier shall pay a levy equal to the percentage disclosed in the "Percentage fee charged to suppliers" section of this notice. This levy is calculated as a percentage of the Supplier's total invoiced Charges (excluding VAT) each quarter for all Call-Off Contracts awarded under the framework. The levy supports the ongoing management and administration of the framework. Full details are set out in the Framework Agreement.
Framework operation description
This framework agreement was established with multiple suppliers and will operate in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. All call-off contracts will be awarded through a mini-competition process. Prior to issuing an Invitation to Mini-Tender, the customer may engage with suppliers to confirm their capacity and interest in the specific opportunity. Suppliers who confirm they are unable or unwilling to participate will not be invited to that mini-competition. Each mini-competition will include a specification, timeframe, and clearly defined award criteria and their relative weightings. Tenders will be evaluated based on the Most Advantageous Tender (MAT) principle. The framework is designed to ensure transparency, fairness, and value for money, and allows for flexibility in meeting the specific needs of Customers. Call-off contracts may be entered into at any time during the Framework term and will be governed by the Call-Off Terms and Conditions set out in the agreement.
