What the notice says

Caerphilly County Borough Council (the “Authority”) is seeking to establish a Contract for the Provision of Window Cleaning and Associated Cleans for Caerphilly County Borough Council’s Corporate Properties (the “Contract”).The requirement includes the cleaning of all external glazing, internal communal windows, canopies, and guttering, supporting the overall upkeep of the Council’s estate and helping to prevent deterioration of building fabric. This service will contribute to providing a safe and professional environment for staff, residents, and visitors while maintaining asset value. Following the original publication of this opportunity, the clarification and tender submission deadlines were subsequently extended and communicated through the Authority's e-tendering system (Proactis). The revised timetable was not reflected in a corresponding notice on Sell2Wales. This notice is therefore being issued to ensure transparency and equal visibility to the market and to formally publicise the revised procurement timetable applicable to this procurement exercise.
