The cleaning service is currently provided by the Local Authority.

The School is of the opinion that if a new supplier is successful there will be TUPE implications, therefore, any company wishing to be considered for this contract must be able to demonstrate experience and depth of knowledge in the management and handling of TUPE issues if necessary. However, those organisations who are interested in tendering should seek their own legal advice with regard to any TUPE issues.

The contract will commence 1st October 2021 for a period of 4 years on a 2+1+1 basis.

All queries should be addressed through the Sell2Wales portal by Friday 16th July 2021.

This contract will be fixed price in nature with the successful contractor working to an output cleaning specification which complies with the relevant quality standards.

We are seeking a suitably experienced contractor who has current experience of working within a Primary / Secondary School or College market place, ideally with a strong operational base within South Wales, thus allowing for responsive, contract support and management of cleaning staff.

The successful tenderer will be required to formally report each month on cleaning standards and operational matters, ensuring the Headteacher is fully informed about issues related to delivery of the cleaning service. Additional information: Please note that this is a re-tender of a previous tender which was abandoned due to the Pandemic. All documents have been updated including the TUPE information. Previous documents should be discarded. All questions should be directed to the School via the Sell2Wales Portal by Friday 16th July 2021.
