Spencer academies trust is a Multi academy trust which includes the above Academies, where the successful Supplier will be required to deliver a service and meet the requirements of the specification from the contract commencement.

The Trust is expected to grow in the number of Academies becoming part of the Trust during this Contract period, and the provision of Cleaning services within these academies when they have joined the Trust may fall under the scope of this Contract. The successful Supplier will be expected to provide this service within these academies using the same costing model, ratios etc that they applied to their successful tender submission for the Trust at the point of tender submission. The duration of contract for these academies will not be increased and they will join the Contract for the remaining contract period that exists at the point of entry into the Trust.

The Contract being tendered is for 3 years in duration from 1.1.2019 until 31.12.2021, with the option to extend for a further term of 2 years, and will be fixed price in nature, with the supplier invoicing the client for one-twelfth of the annual cost on a monthly basis.

The tender project is seeking to appoint a supplier whose initiative and innovation will be welcomed for the provision of cleaning services within the Client's facilities. The high quality service levels proposed, should maintain excellent standards throughout, resulting in a pleasant environment for both the pupils and staff.

The basis and rationale that the client requires the successful supplier to operate to at all times, is being able to provide an Academy that is fit for purpose and that the Supplier is proactive in the management of the contract, thus ensuring that all specifications are achieved and that the frequency of cleans is as detailed within the tender specification.
