What buyers expect in cleaning tenders

Common UK requirements and references. The buyer's own documents always decide what is mandatory, so check the specification and selection questionnaire for each opportunity.

Standard or requirement Why it matters in the bid
COSHH Regulations 2002 Chemical risk assessments, safety data sheets and training records are standard evidence.
BICSc British Institute of Cleaning Science training and accreditation. Widely recognised by buyers as evidence of operative competence.
National Standards of Healthcare Cleanliness 2021 The NHS England framework for cleaning frequencies, functional risk categories and audit. Expect it on NHS and healthcare tenders.
BS EN 13549 Cleaning services quality measuring systems. Useful when explaining audit method and scoring.
Real Living Wage Not a legal requirement, but fair pay is an award criterion in the new central government Social Value Model (PPN 026).
SSIP schemes CHAS, SafeContractor and similar health and safety pre-qualification schemes that buyers use to shortcut supplier checks.

Evidence to have ready

  • Productivity rates per area type with the method you used to calculate hours
  • Quality audit template, frequency and how failures are rectified
  • Training records and induction plan for operatives and supervisors
  • COSHH register and chemical selection, including any eco-labelled products
  • Absence cover and how you keep the service running during peak sickness
  • TUPE handling experience and staff retention figures

Quality questions you will often see

  • How will you guarantee consistent standards across all sites?
  • Describe your quality audit and rectification process
  • How will you recruit, train, supervise and retain operatives?
  • How will you reduce the environmental impact of the service?
  • How will you mobilise the contract and handle TUPE transfers?

Pricing risks to check

  • National Living Wage increases each April and Real Living Wage uplifts each autumn
  • TUPE staff on enhanced terms or with accrued holiday
  • Unstated periodic cleans, consumables and washroom services
  • Out-of-hours access restrictions that reduce productivity
  • Price-per-quality scoring that rewards unsustainably low hours

CPV codes we track

  • 90910000 Cleaning services
  • 90911000 Accommodation, building and window cleaning services
  • 90919000 Office, school and office equipment cleaning services
  • 90900000 Cleaning and sanitation services

Notices are also matched on title keywords, so buyers who choose a broad CPV code are still picked up.

Cleaning tender questions

Straight answers for UK suppliers.

Where can I find cleaning tenders in the UK?

Public cleaning tenders are published on Find a Tender, with Scottish and Welsh opportunities also on Public Contracts Scotland and Sell2Wales. This page lists the live ones and refreshes from those sources every day.

Do cleaning tenders require the Real Living Wage?

Not as a legal requirement in most cases, but many buyers score fair pay as social value, and the PPN 026 Social Value Model includes fair pay and fair working conditions as award criteria for in-scope central government contracts.

What accreditations help win cleaning contracts?

Buyers commonly look for SSIP health and safety accreditation such as CHAS or SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, BICSc-trained staff and, for healthcare, experience of the National Standards of Healthcare Cleanliness.
