BHCC Cleaning & Clearance Services

Description

Brighton & Hove City Council (the Council) are looking to undertake a Competitive Flexible Procedure (Procurement Act 2023) to deliver one or more cleaning and clearance suppliers to support the delivery of its Adult Social Care and Tenancy Management services. The intended outcome of the process is to award contract(s) to support individual service users and tenants across the city where a need has been identified for household de-cluttering, deep-cleaning, ad hoc cleans and regular cleaning services. The value of these services combined is approximately £500,000 per annum. Indicative contract length approximately 4 years. We will give consideration to structuring any contract by Lots, with regard to specialism, and/or to ensure adequate capacity, responsiveness, and to encourage participation by SMEs. We are seeking responses from potential providers who may be interested in being part of this process. Responses should include: • Organisation name • Organisation Address • Company no./vat registration • Contact info • Comments on the proposal We anticipate an informal engagement session on 01/10/24 and can provide further details of this on request. As a guide we are likely to publish tender documents in November 2024, with a view to award contract(s) in early 2025. Responses should be sent by email to andrew.phillips@brighton-hove.gov.uk This is not a call for competition Lot 1: De-clutter and deep cleaning Services are intended as a 'one-off' service, where a provider will restore a person's home to a standard that promotes safety, health and wellbeing, and prevents loss of accommodation and homelessness. This is likely to involve situations where a property has become neglected and unfit to live in, including properties deemed unsafe due to hoarding. This may include clearance of outside areas around the property, especially access routes. Additionally this may entail deep-cleaning a property that has become a risk to the health of the occupier. 'Ad hoc' cleaning services will provide a high standard of cleaning on a 'one-off' basis as a way of restoring accommodation to a standard that promotes safety, health, and wellbeing Regular cleaning services will support those who, through ill-health or personal circumstances such as substance use are unable to maintain their accommodation as a safe and pleasant place to live. This will ensure a high level of cleanliness to an agreed cleaning plan.
