In order to tender for the cleaning of offices, head offices and multi-site facilities, it is important to gather a certain amount of key information that will enable Cleaning Companies to efficiently address the client's needs. Bids in tendering will then be impartially assessed and compared with each other.

This includes, first of all, the following general information:
 
  • Consultation rules: the deadlines to be met (submission of tenders, presentation, mandatory visits, etc.)

  • A DPGF and a simplified BPU: the breakdown of the overall and fixed prices (DPGF in French) provides the budgetary details of the service to be performed. These financial packages are defined by the quantities and elements to be quoted by the companies. The BPU (unit price schedule) indicates the unit cost of an additional service to be provided.

 

  • Detailed specifications: document detailing all the services to be quantified and quoted within the framework of the consultation. It includes a frequency table, a nomenclature and a typology of premises.
