    Brief

    Cardiff University Residences Services is seeking to establish an open framework agreement with multiple contract cleaning suppliers to provide cleaning services for university accommodation buildings. Services are required at key periods throughout the year, including end-of-academic-year deep cleaning, conference and event preparation, and start-of-term turnover cleaning. This framework approach ensures service resilience by engaging several qualified contractors, reducing the risk of service delivery failure and guaranteeing sufficient capacity to complete all required works within demanding timescales. Successful suppliers will support challenging cleaning environments and manage tight turnaround times between occupancy periods. The framework will be open to multiple providers to ensure flexibility and reliability of service delivery across all residences.
