## About this tender

1.0 Outline of Requirement

CEH Wallingford's cleaning contract ends on the 31st of March 2018, therefore the purpose of this tender is to install either one or two suppliers to fulfil the requirements for the cleanliness of the site for the benefit of the staff who work here and to present CEH Wallingford as a centre of excellence for potential customers, suppliers and partner organisations.

2.0 Scope of Requirements

The following requirements are all considered to be essential:

Hours of operation: Monday-Friday (excluding bank holidays) 07:30-21:00. These hours can be covered by a reasonable number of operatives in a daytime and an evening shift. CEH expects that 20-30 hours will be required per day in order to ensure our expectations are met

Activities:

â&#128;¢ Daily cleaning of reception area, corridors, meeting rooms, concourse (including upholstered furniture), canteen, toilets (including the replenishment of paper towels and toilet paper as required), stair cases and open plan offices with one thorough clean per week. Desks and paraphernalia to be cleaned weekly or as requested.

â&#128;¢ Emptying and cleaning waste containers as required.

â&#128;¢ Spot cleaning of floors and walls in case of spillages or excess mess.
