Description

Folkestone and Hythe District Council ("FHDC") wishes to select and appoint a suitable supplier to provide cleaning services for the communal areas of FHDC's social housing stock and invites prospective suppliers to submit a Tender to meet the Council's requirements.

The specific requirements for the above are detailed in the Specification at Appendix A. By submitting a quotation, you confirm that you understand and can meet these requirements.

The contract is anticipated to start 1 October 2024 and continue for a period of 3 years (with the option to extend for a further period (or periods) of up to 36 months).

This tender will be conducted using a two-stage 'restricted' procedure. This selection stage ('stage one') will be used to decide which organisations we will invite to tender in stage two. We expect to select five organisations for the second stage. If the scores of some applicants are the same or very close, we might choose to invite more than five organisations to tender.
