    Brief

    Lancaster University is seeking to establish a framework agreement for specialised cleaning services, with plans to appoint 3-5 suppliers across multiple service categories. This framework ensures the University maintains a reliable supply of qualified contractors to meet varying operational demands while achieving value for money. The opportunity is divided into 8 separate lots covering: full building deep cleaning, emergency and hazardous cleaning, en-suite bathroom pod cleaning, oven deep cleaning, upholstery and soft furnishings cleaning, external cleaning, weekend and weekday cleaning support, and ad hoc general cleaning services. Interested suppliers should submit an Invitation to Participate response including a completed Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ). Following evaluation, up to 8 suppliers per lot will be shortlisted and invited to submit detailed tenders. Final supplier selection will be based on both quantitative and qualitative assessment criteria outlined in the Invitation to Tender (ITT) documentation.
