The aim is to secure up to 4 providers to be part of a multiple-provider Framework. The materials will primarily be purchased by the client areas responsible for Contract Services in schools including school meals/cleaning contracts and housing janitorial services across the Borough's social housing stock managed by Tower Hamlets Homes (THH). THH provide cleaning services to 920 residential blocks belonging to Tower Hamlets Council. 160 estate based caretakers undertake the cleaning duties of all the communal areas within the blocks and the externals of the estates. THH have a mixture of tenanted and leasehold properties and residents pay for a cleaning service to be delivered to the communal areas of their blocks via their rent and service charges. For this reason, it is essential the Caretakers have the right products to deliver a high standard of cleaning and obtain value for money for our residents and leaseholders through the procurement process. Contract Services Team is the in-house contractor for catering and cleaning services providing a service to over half of the schools in the borough ensuring pupils have a clean and safe environment to learn. Other Council teams may make purchases, including the Council's own Facility Management team, which accounts for the higher maximum level of spend identified in the Contract Notice, however, this upper level of spend is not guaranteed. It is intended that purchases will be made using suppliers' on-line catalogues, which may be reviewed in line with the requirements of the Specification . The framework will look to encourage the use of goods with sustainability credentials, environmental considerations and adherence to UK statute and regulatory orders or codes of practice arising therefrom and to any EU or other internationally recognised standards. Organisations wishing to express their interest are requested to register on the London Tenders Portal ([londontenders.org](https://www.londontenders.org)) where the opportunity documentation will be available for download. You will be required to complete an online questionnaire.
