                        "description": "Rushmoor Borough Council (the 'council') will be re-tendering its Cleaning and Security contract in place at The Meads, Farnborough. Alongside this the Council is also considering its options for re-tendering its cleaning & security arrangements in place across a further three of its key investment assets located in Guildford, Aldershot and Frimley. \nThe subsequent formal procurement process, which will be run as an over threshold openly advertised covered procurement, is targeted for issue in early March 2026. Prior to undertaking this process, the Council is keen to engage with the market to gain feedback & insight via a formal Preliminary Market Engagement process that will help inform its final technical, commercial, contracting and procurement strategy.   \nOne of the Council's key considerations which will be tested through this preliminary market engagement process, is whether to procure all security & cleaning services across all sites under one contract, split contracts by service, split contracts by property asset and other potential bidding combinations. \nThe award date for the contract/s is targeted for 16th May 2026 with commencement of services to run from 1st September 2026. The Council anticipates letting the contract/s on a 3-year base term with options to extend up to a maximum of 7 years but will be seeking views from the market on this element. \nThe combined value of all services across all sites is currently in the region of £730,000 per annum (excluding VAT). This is broken down in more detail further in the PME brief document which is available on Rushmoor Borough Council's e-tendering solution, Procontract, a link to the site can be found here - https://procontract.due-north.com/Login.  \nOverview of Sites, Requirements & Current Budget Levels\nThe Council requires high-quality cleaning and security suppliers who specialise in the delivery of services at the types of commercial property under council ownership, this includes:\nThe Meads Shopping Centre\nThe cleaning and security contracts are currently undertaken by Kingdom Facilities Management.  The cleaning contract includes the common parts of the shopping centre and toilets, offices, multi-story car park, loading bays, street cleaning, gritting and light landscaping.  This diverse cleaning and security contract includes the importance of a high-quality output, whilst also interacting with members of the public and tenants during the shopping centre opening hours. Whilst also keeping it secure at closing times.  The security team will be responsible for 24-hour CCTV control room monitoring, security patrols, customer service and assist with meeting H&S requirements, attending to intruder alarms and fire alarms with the possibility of leading evacuations and calling relevant services.  The centre is manned 24/7 with opening hours between 07:00 - 01:00 seven days a week, with the exception of Christmas Day.  Full TUPE information will be available at the tendering stage upon completion of the Non-disclosure Agreement.\nUnion Yard \nThe current contract is undertaken by Gurkha security.  Union Yard is a newly developed shopping area in Aldershot Town Centre.  The Cleaning and security requirements include all outdoor common areas within the scheme. This includes courtyards and garden area, pedestrianised streets, public realm within close proximity, landscaping, street furniture, toilet block, and underground car park.  Requirements include winter gritting, litter picking and cleaning a small toilet block facility which is used by tenants only who do not have toilet facilities in their small units.  There is an emphasis of this being a porter style role rather than traditional security and cleaning with regular tenant and customer interaction.  The hours may be subject to change but are currently Monday - Friday 07:00 - 17:00. As commercial expectations rise, we may need to change this to include the weekends.  Currently the duties are carried out by one full-time site porter whose time is split approximately as 75% cleaning and 25% security.\nAshbourne House\nThe cleaning contract is currently undertaken by Churchill Cleaning Solutions.  Ashbourne house is a multi-tenanted office block.  It includes cleaning the internal common parts, such as reception, stairways, lifts and common WCs.  Also includes periodic cleans of hard floors and carpeted areas within the common parts and regular external cleans.  The contract is based on two cleaners attending daily. Security guarding for this site is only on an ad-hoc basis, such traveller encampments into the adjoining park and ride car park. There is response security (off site).\nFrimley 4.4:\nThe contract is undertaken by Mobius security and Protective Services.  This is a large business unit on a multi-let estate and includes cleaning of common-part and retained areas including reception, stairways and common WCs.  There is manned security and associated costs for staff specifically employed to undertake security duties onsite. Security contract includes additional items such as radio equipment and uniforms.\nProcurement Process and Programme \nFollowing completion of the Preliminary Market Engagement process, the Council is targeting to commence a formal procurement process following the Open Procedure via issue of a Tender Notice on 9th March 2026 with contract award to the successful Operator targeted for 16th May 2026. \nThe contract is targeted for commencement on 1st September 2026. The Council will give the successful services providers a minimum of 3-month mobilisation period to ensure seamless service is maintained. The Council is seeking feedback from the market in relation to the proposed mobilisation period as part of this preliminary procurement engagement process.  \nThe current indicative procurement programme is set out below:\nTender Notice Issued\t9th March 2026\nTender Pack Issued on ProContract - 9th March 2026\nMandatory Site Tour and Bidders Briefing - 18th March 2026 \nDeadline for Requests for Clarification - 1st April 2026 @23:59\nTender return deadline - 10th April 2026 @12:00\nAward Decision & Assessment Summaries Issued 5th May 2026 \nContract Award Notice Issued 5th May 2026\nStandstill Period Starts 6th May 2026 \nStandstill Period Ends\t15th May 2026 @23:59\nContract Award - 16th May 2026 \nMobilisation - 16th May - 31st August 2026\nContract Commencement - 1st September 2026 \nThe full preliminary market engagement documentation pack can be accessed using the following link: https://procontract.due-north.com/Login",

Due to staff rotas the council cannot provide any additional dates for visits to site.\nThis procurement timetable is indicative and, while the council does not intend to depart from it, it reserves the right to do so at any time.\n•\tTender Notice Issued - Wednesday 25th March 2026\n•\tTender Pack Issued on ProContract - Wednesday 25th March 2026\n•\tTEAMS Bidders Briefing - Monday 30th March 2026 @14:00\n•\tMandatory Site Tour - Wednesday 8th April 2026 and Tuesday 14th April 2026 @10:00\n•\tDeadline for Requests for Clarification - Thursday 16th April 2026 @23:59\n•\tTender return deadline - Friday 1st May 2026 @12:00\n•\tInterviews - 12th and 13th May 2026\n•\tAward Decision & Assessment Summaries Issued - 22nd May 2026\n•\tContract Award Notice Issued - 22nd May 2026\n•\tStandstill Period Starts - 26th May 2026\n•\tStandstill Period Ends - 4th June 2026\n•\tContract Award - 5th June 2026\n•\tMobilisation - 6th June - 6th September 2026\n•\tContract Commencement - 7th September 2026\nThe Council is utilising its e-sender tool ProContract to manage this procurement which can be accessed using the following link: https://procontract.due-north.com/Login",

These documents outline the expected service standards, operational parameters and site-specific needs for both Cleaning and Security services.\nThe people rates submitted within the Pricing Template for Cleaning and Security services shall be fixed for the duration of the contract and will apply equally to the additional sites should the Council choose to adopt them at any point during the term.\nAny future inclusion of these sites will follow the agreed contract variation process and will be communicated to the Supplier in accordance with the contract conditions.\nShould the Council choose to include Union Yard, Ashbourne House and Frimley 4.4 within the contract the annual contract value will be in the region of £769,000 per annum.\nBased on anticipated inflationary uplifts and the total individual contract spend over the potential 5-year term (3-year base with options to extend) including for the additional 3 sites is expected to be in the region of £4,082,725.44 excluding VAT.

These documents outline the expected service standards, operational parameters and site-specific needs for both Cleaning and Security services.\nThe people rates submitted within the Pricing Template for Cleaning and Security services shall be fixed for the duration of the contract and will apply equally to the additional sites should the Council choose to adopt them at any point during the term.\nAny future inclusion of these sites will follow the agreed contract variation process and will be communicated to the Supplier in accordance with the contract conditions.\nShould the Council choose to include Union Yard, Ashbourne House and Frimley 4.4 within the contract the annual contract value will be in the region of £769,000 per annum.\nBased on anticipated inflationary uplifts and the total individual contract spend over the potential 5-year term (3-year base with options to extend) including for the additional 3 sites is expected to be in the region of £4,082,725.44 excluding VAT.

Responses should be provided by 10th February 2026 - 12:00 as the Council will be scheduling its consideration of responses shortly afterwards.\nFollowing review of responses, the council may seek to engage with respondents in order to better understand suggested approaches. This will likely be via issue of correspondence via ProContract but may also be via invitation to attend a brief on-line TEAMS meeting. Engagement activities are targeted to take place between Tuesday 17th and Friday 20th February. Respondents will be asked to confirm their availability and suggested dates & times for participating in a TEAMS call within their RFI responses.\nThe summary programme that the Council will run the PME process to is set out below:\nPME Notice Issued \t21st January 2026\nPME Pack Issued on ProContract\t21st January 2026\nMeads Site Tour Request Deadline\t28th January 2026 @14:00\nMeads Site Tour\t29th January @10:00 - 12:00\nPME RFI Response Deadline - 10th February 2026 @12:00\nThe Meads PME Site Visit \nThe council are offering an optional site visit at The Meads on Thursday 29th January from 10:00 -12:00.  \nTenderers who wish to attend the visit are requested to confirm the names and positions of delegates (max of 2 delegates) that they wish to send to the site visit by ProContract correspondence by 2pm on Wednesday 28th January.  \nDelegates should arrive 15 minutes before commencement of the site tour and report to Ron Melia, Centre Manager at the business Centre Office, which is located at end of the Shopping centre, just beyond the Prezzo Restaurant. \nFurther site visits will be allowed for at the tendering stage under the future formal procurement process, attendance at which will be mandatory requirement of bidding. \nAdministration \nThe RFI questionnaire, draft specification and supporting documents can be accessed via the Council's e-sourcing system ProContract.\nThe Council use the system to administrate the preliminary market engagement process and subsequent formal procurement process, including for the following activities:\n•\tAccess to and issue of preliminary market information & documentation\n•\tPre-RFI submission clarification requests and response\n•\tRFI questionnaire submission\n•\tAccess to and issue of procurement information & documentation\n•\tPre-tender submission clarification requests and response\n•\tTender submission\n•\tTender opening & access to responses\n•\tPost-tender submission clarification requests and response\n•\tAward decision notification & feedback.\nNB: Suppliers should note that there is no obligation to take part in this exercise and that if they do not take part, it will not preclude them from any subsequent related procurement process. Engaging suppliers will not receive preferential treatment in any subsequent quotation or tender process, and this is in no way an indication of the selection of any organisation or a guarantee of future work."

                            "value": "Rushmoor Borough Council (the 'council') will be re-tendering its Cleaning and Security contract in place at The Meads, Farnborough. Alongside this the Council is also considering its options for re-tendering its cleaning & security arrangements in place across a further three of its key investment assets located in Guildford, Aldershot and Frimley. \nThe subsequent formal procurement process, which will be run as an over threshold openly advertised covered procurement, is targeted for issue in early March 2026. Prior to undertaking this process, the Council is keen to engage with the market to gain feedback & insight via a formal Preliminary Market Engagement process that will help inform its final technical, commercial, contracting and procurement strategy.   \nOne of the Council's key considerations which will be tested through this preliminary market engagement process, is whether to procure all security & cleaning services across all sites under one contract, split contracts by service, split contracts by property asset and other potential bidding combinations. \nThe award date for the contract/s is targeted for 16th May 2026 with commencement of services to run from 1st September 2026. The Council anticipates letting the contract/s on a 3-year base term with options to extend up to a maximum of 7 years but will be seeking views from the market on this element. \nThe combined value of all services across all sites is currently in the region of £730,000 per annum (excluding VAT). This is broken down in more detail further in the PME brief document which is available on Rushmoor Borough Council's e-tendering solution, Procontract, a link to the site can be found here - https://procontract.due-north.com/Login.  \nOverview of Sites, Requirements & Current Budget Levels\nThe Council requires high-quality cleaning and security suppliers who specialise in the delivery of services at the types of commercial property under council ownership, this includes:\nThe Meads Shopping Centre\nThe cleaning and security contracts are currently undertaken by Kingdom Facilities Management.  The cleaning contract includes the common parts of the shopping centre and toilets, offices, multi-story car park, loading bays, street cleaning, gritting and light landscaping.  This diverse cleaning and security contract includes the importance of a high-quality output, whilst also interacting with members of the public and tenants during the shopping centre opening hours. Whilst also keeping it secure at closing times.  The security team will be responsible for 24-hour CCTV control room monitoring, security patrols, customer service and assist with meeting H&S requirements, attending to intruder alarms and fire alarms with the possibility of leading evacuations and calling relevant services.  The centre is manned 24/7 with opening hours between 07:00 - 01:00 seven days a week, with the exception of Christmas Day.  Full TUPE information will be available at the tendering stage upon completion of the Non-disclosure Agreement.\nUnion Yard \nThe current contract is undertaken by Gurkha security.  Union Yard is a newly developed shopping area in Aldershot Town Centre.  The Cleaning and security requirements include all outdoor common areas within the scheme. This includes courtyards and garden area, pedestrianised streets, public realm within close proximity, landscaping, street furniture, toilet block, and underground car park.  Requirements include winter gritting, litter picking and cleaning a small toilet block facility which is used by tenants only who do not have toilet facilities in their small units.  There is an emphasis of this being a porter style role rather than traditional security and cleaning with regular tenant and customer interaction.  The hours may be subject to change but are currently Monday - Friday 07:00 - 17:00. As commercial expectations rise, we may need to change this to include the weekends.  Currently the duties are carried out by one full-time site porter whose time is split approximately as 75% cleaning and 25% security.\nAshbourne House\nThe cleaning contract is currently undertaken by Churchill Cleaning Solutions.  Ashbourne house is a multi-tenanted office block.  It includes cleaning the internal common parts, such as reception, stairways, lifts and common WCs.  Also includes periodic cleans of hard floors and carpeted areas within the common parts and regular external cleans.  The contract is based on two cleaners attending daily. Security guarding for this site is only on an ad-hoc basis, such traveller encampments into the adjoining park and ride car park. There is response security (off site).\nFrimley 4.4:\nThe contract is undertaken by Mobius security and Protective Services.  This is a large business unit on a multi-let estate and includes cleaning of common-part and retained areas including reception, stairways and common WCs.  There is manned security and associated costs for staff specifically employed to undertake security duties onsite. Security contract includes additional items such as radio equipment and uniforms.\nProcurement Process and Programme \nFollowing completion of the Preliminary Market Engagement process, the Council is targeting to commence a formal procurement process following the Open Procedure via issue of a Tender Notice on 9th March 2026 with contract award to the successful Operator targeted for 16th May 2026. \nThe contract is targeted for commencement on 1st September 2026. The Council will give the successful services providers a minimum of 3-month mobilisation period to ensure seamless service is maintained. The Council is seeking feedback from the market in relation to the proposed mobilisation period as part of this preliminary procurement engagement process.  \nThe current indicative procurement programme is set out below:\nTender Notice Issued\t9th March 2026\nTender Pack Issued on ProContract - 9th March 2026\nMandatory Site Tour and Bidders Briefing - 18th March 2026 \nDeadline for Requests for Clarification - 1st April 2026 @23:59\nTender return deadline - 10th April 2026 @12:00\nAward Decision & Assessment Summaries Issued 5th May 2026 \nContract Award Notice Issued 5th May 2026\nStandstill Period Starts 6th May 2026 \nStandstill Period Ends\t15th May 2026 @23:59\nContract Award - 16th May 2026 \nMobilisation - 16th May - 31st August 2026\nContract Commencement - 1st September 2026 \nThe full preliminary market engagement documentation pack can be accessed using the following link: https://procontract.due-north.com/Login"
