Illustrative supplier profile: a contractor offering school cleaning in Hertfordshire. No staffing, financial, insurance or transfer-of-staff evidence has been supplied. This is not a real customer profile.
The official page says the submission deadline was updated. Its current Submission section gives 6 November 2026 at 1:00pm for requests to participate. Treat this as a participation deadline, not a final tender-return date.
Published evidence: “Requests to participate” · Submission ↗
School cleaning and Hertfordshire match the illustrative profile. The procedure starts with a Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ); only shortlisted suppliers proceed to the Invitation to Tender (ITT). The match does not establish eligibility.
The notice requires a TUPE-compliant, operationally deliverable solution and a credible guaranteed cost of operation. Check the full pack for staffing and transfer information, input hours, financial and insurance conditions, and the detailed timetable. These have not been reviewed here.

Open the submission portal linked from the notice, read the PSQ and full timetable, and check your evidence and capacity before deciding whether to participate. The notice weights tender response at 50%, financial evaluation at 25% and presentation at 25%; price alone is not the decision.
