51% of Somerset County Council’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →

The brief

Somerset Council has a need to procure one or more contractors to cover the cleaning of sheltered housing meeting halls, extra care housing facilities , communal areas within flat blocks, and to put in place ad-hoc arrangements in place, for example the removal of graffiti, deep cleaning and disposal of sharps.

The requirement is divided into two workstreams as follows: Workstream 1 Communal cleaning in meeting halls and extra care schemes (including specification for adhoc deep cleans and other adhoc requirements) Workstream 2 Cleaning of communal areas in flat blocks (including specification for adhoc deep cleans and other adhoc requirements).

Workstream 1 is being procured under Lot 1 Communal cleaning in meeting halls and extra care schemes (including specification for adhoc deep cleans and other adhoc requirements) Workstream 2 is being procured under two separate Lots, 2 and 3 as follows: Lot 2: 50% geographical split of cleaning of communal areas in flat blocks (including specification for adhoc deep cleans and other adhoc requirements).

There are sub-Lots 2A and 2B to allow potential bidders to respond to potential service and price options.

The preferred Lot for award is under sub-Lot 2A.

Lot 2B will only be considered where there are no proposals under Lot A that meet the minimum standards required.

Lot 3: 50% Geographical split of cleaning of communal areas in flat blocks (including specification for adhoc deep cleans and other adhoc requirements).

There are sub-Lots 3A and 3B to allow potential bidders to respond to potential service and price options.

The preferred Lot for award is under sub-Lot 3A.

Lot 3B be will only be considered where there are no proposals under Lot A that meet the minimum standards required.

The Council will only award one contract for one sub-Lot for Lot 2 and one sub-Lot for Lot 3.

Applicants may bid for one, two or all three Lots and therefore the number of contracts awarded will be between 1 and 3.
