In plain English
Lincoln Christ's Hospital School is looking for a cleaning contractor to provide a full daily cleaning service during term time, plus periodic cleaning during school holidays. The contract is estimated at £814,680 over three years from 1 August 2027, with an option to extend for up to two more years.
What the buyer wants
• Provide a full daily cleaning service during school term time • Provide periodic cleaning services outside term time • Take on the existing cleaning staff under TUPE (the rules that transfer staff to a new contractor), including arranging 'Admitted Body' status with the relevant pension fund for any staff in the Local Government Pension Scheme
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The contract requires taking on the existing cleaning staff under TUPE, some of whom may be in the Local Government Pension Scheme, which means arranging Admitted Body pension status, so a small business without the capacity to handle staff transfers and pension arrangements may find this difficult.
Always check the tender documents.
