II.2.4) Description of the procurement
London Borough of Tower Hamlets is seeking expressions of interest from suitable organisations for the supply of cleaning materials and equipment. The aim is to establish a framework of suppliers for Tower Hamlets Homes (THH) and the Council's in-house contract services team. Tower Hamlets Homes provide cleaning services to 920 residential blocks belonging to Tower Hamlets Council. 160 estate based caretakers undertake the cleaning duties of all communal areas within the blocks and external areas of the streets. 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.
