BUILDING CLEANING SERVICES FOR RUTLAND COUNTY COUNCIL

What the buyer is asking for

Rutland County Council is seeking competitive submissions for the provision of general cleaning services within its asset portfolio for a period of 3 years + 1 year extension potential with a commencement date of 1st April 2027. Existing service provision has been provided by a third-party partner who has operated successfully during the last three years in which asset consolidation and variation has occurred. Consequently, any future contract award will be subject to statutory TUPE considerations and consideration of these implications will be necessary.
