Summary of the contracting process

Independence C I C bought building works to alter a bin store and incorporate it into a hallway, alongside a straight stairlift installation. The procurement is categorised as access-ramp work, with ramps, paths and hardstanding, including handrails, named in the lot title. The stated requirement calls for a site visit. The buyer is Independence C I C, based in Newton Abbot. Delivery locations are listed broadly, including the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, as well as locations elsewhere in Europe and beyond.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to a supplier, whose name is not recorded in the available award details. The award date was 25 June 2025. The tender deadline was 24 June 2025 at 5pm. The estimated tender value was £35,231.52; the award value is recorded as £0, so the contract price cannot be established from these figures. The contract period ran from 3 March to 22 April 2026. The procurement is identified as Lot 8 of the ARMI dynamic purchasing system, but no evaluation criteria or further procedure details are stated. The procurement was classed as works, and small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable.

For suppliers of accessibility-related building works, this requirement shows demand from Independence C I C for practical home adaptations combining stairlift installation with changes to an internal hallway and bin-store layout. Credible competitors would need to assess an existing site, plan the integration of the alterations, and carry out the installation and building work as one coordinated job. Experience with access ramps, paths, hardstanding or handrails is relevant to the wider lot scope, although the specific task described centres on a straight stairlift and bin-store alteration. The buyer considered smaller businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises suitable, indicating the work was not restricted to larger contractors. Suppliers able to deliver this combination of accessibility equipment and associated property alterations would be best aligned with a similar requirement from this buyer.
