In plain English

Kings Langley School is looking for a cleaning company to handle all cleaning services for their secondary school (1,126 students and 125 staff) starting April 2027. The contract runs for three years with a possible two-year extension, and they want a partner who can deliver high standards reliably and suggest improvements to how cleaning is currently done.

What the buyer wants

• Provide consistent, high-standard cleaning services across the entire school site, meeting agreed hours and key performance indicators • Take on existing cleaning staff under TUPE rules (transferring them to your company on their current terms) • Review current operations and propose improvements in staffing, methods, equipment, materials and sustainability, plus invest in modern cleaning technology • Meet reliability and responsiveness standards that pupils, staff and visitors depend on every day

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

This is a large contract worth £1,015,000 per year with mandatory TUPE transfer of existing staff, strict KPI targets, and significant upfront investment required in equipment and systems: most sole traders and micro-businesses will struggle with the staffing obligations, insurance costs, and financial guarantees demanded.

How to bid

This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
