Summary of the contracting process

Milton Keynes College procured fully comprehensive lift maintenance and servicing. The requirement is for ongoing maintenance and service of the College’s lifts, with delivery associated with its Chaffron Way Campus in Leadenhall, Milton Keynes. This is a facilities maintenance service, rather than a lift installation or equipment purchase. The named buyer is Milton Keynes College.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Rubax Lifts Limited. The award date was 6 October 2026, and the contract runs from 26 October 2026 to 25 October 2029; the original requirement allowed for extension or extensions of up to 24 months. The awarded value is £38,883.52, against an estimated procurement value of £85,000. The College used an open procedure. The published information does not describe lots or the evaluation criteria. The competition deadline was 7 July 2026 at 1pm.

This award shows demand at Milton Keynes College for a fully comprehensive lift maintenance and servicing arrangement, rather than a one-off repair or installation. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to demonstrate the capability to maintain and service the College’s lifts comprehensively over a multi-year contract. The incumbent, Rubax Lifts Limited, was selected through an open procedure, and the procurement was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. These facts indicate the relevant service scope and route to market, but the available procurement details do not set out specific technical accreditations, staffing levels, response times or evaluation weightings that a competing supplier could use to assess its precise fit.
