The True Learning Partnership (TTLP) are seeking to procure a number of providers for a multi-supplier framework for cleaning services. The main objective of this procurement exercise is to deliver the procurement of a framework that will enable TTLP to source cleaning services for its schools.
There are initially 5 schools in this framework, however, other schools may call off later.
It should be noted that it is not mandatory for TTLP schools to use this framework. Schools will only call off from this agreement if they have a requirement to do so. It is envisaged the number of contractors on the framework will be between 1 and 3
The provision of the service must demonstrate the best value approach and be flexible in its delivery and operation to ensure that the needs and ethos of individual schools are supported.
This framework process is targeted to have a cleaning contract in place to commence in December 2022 for Disley Primary School, Glossopdale School & 6th Form, Hague Bar Primary School, Lostock Hall Primary School and Poynton High School. Please note that this process covers all cleaning services within TTLP schools with full tender costings and proposals for the schools for a contract start in December 2022 for Disley Primary School, Glossopdale School & 6th Form, Hague Bar Primary School, Lostock Hall Primary School and Poynton High School. These details will be further explained in the ITT documents. The process will include the creation of a select bidder list following analysis of SQ documents (within which the scoring criteria is included). Following the analysis of SQ’s the selected bidders will be invited to attend a site survey and tender briefing initially planned for early-July 2022. Tender response deadline is planned as early-September and it is envisaged that interviews will take place in late-September. The contract will be for a 3 +1 +1 period (5 years in total including the option to extend for 1 + 1years).

These details will be further explained in the ITT documents. The process will include the creation of a select bidder list following analysis of SQ documents (within which the scoring criteria is included). The nature of the contract demands a good local infrastructure to provide and maintain the level and standard of cleaning service and support required by the Trust. Labour resource/relief cover is very important. We have set a minimum level of turnover for this tender at 250,000 GBP which takes into account the contract turnover and cash flow associations. This is a discretionary pass/fail question on the basis that we will consider any additional guarantees and formal assurances such as parent company guarantors or similar which must be included to support any submission. We have set a minimum Employer's (compulsory) liability insurance of 10,000,000 GBP. Following the analysis of SQ’s the selected bidders will be invited to attend a site survey and tender briefing initially planned for early-July 2022. Tender response deadline is planned as early-September and it is envisaged that interviews will take place in late-September.
