Report of the Executive Director of Community and Children’s Services.

The Committee received a report of the Executive Director, Community and Children’s Services in respect of the outcome of the process to select a new service provider for the provision of a window cleaning contract across the Barbican Residential Estate.  Members noted that the contract would be for an initial six-year period, with an early termination for convenience after three years.  The Assistant Director accepted the RCC’s comments in respect of the delay and Members noted that there would be a joint panel for the mobilisation of the contract.

RESOLVED, that:

1. The tender submitted by All Clean London, in the sum of £1,503,110 over six years, be accepted and that they provide the window cleaning services for the Barbican Estate on an initial six-year period, with an early termination for convenience after three years.

2. That the Comptroller and City Solicitor be instructed to draw up the contract with All Clean London, subject to the leasehold consultation process and the 10-day mandatory standstill period referred to in this report having expired.

3. The current contract with Parkers be extended for a further month, to allow for an estimated contract start date of 1 August 2023 and an adequate mobilisation period with All Clean London.
