Five cleaning contractors down to one
Pickwick Academy Trust replaced five cleaning contractors with one trust-wide contract across seven Wiltshire schools, saving £47,280 a year.
Five cleaning contractors down to one
The challenge
Each school managed its own cleaning contract, so standards varied, costs kept rising and nobody had a Trust-wide view.
What we did
- Visited all seven schools and reviewed specifications, costs and staffing
- Wrote one harmonised Trust-wide specification
- Ran a two-stage tender with weighted scoring
- Drafted Trust-specific terms on TUPE, performance and termination

The outcome
One accountable supplier now works to standardised cleaning hours and staffing across every school, and the Trust has a single point of contact for performance.
