Reasons for Decisions
The existing contracts for Schools Cleaning Services will expire on 31 July 2013. A full tender process, in compliance with the EU Procurement Legislation and Procurement Standing Orders has been completed, and the recommendations provide best value for money for the Council. In addition to delivering savings, the contract will also deliver an improved service with strengthened performance measures and robust contract management.
