Summary of the contracting process

Epping Forest District Council procured the supply, installation, warranty and maintenance of straight-flight and curved-track stairlifts for Disabled Facilities Grants. The equipment is intended to support disabled residents through adaptations funded by these grants. The work is classed as stairlift supply and associated services (CPV 44115600). Delivery is associated with Epping, Essex, based on the procurement’s stated postcode. The requirement covers both straight and curved stairlift tracks, together with installation and ongoing warranty and maintenance services. The council is the buyer and the contract was placed through a call-off from a housing framework covering assisted living solutions, kitchens and appliances.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Stannah Lift Services Limited. The council used a selective procedure as a framework call-off. The estimated procurement value and awarded contract value are both £960,000. The award date was 27 July 2026, and the contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 30 July 2028. The tender submission deadline was 6 July 2026 at noon. The requirement is recorded as a single package rather than separate lots. The published award information does not set out a scoring breakdown or specific evaluation criteria, so the basis on which competing offers were assessed cannot be characterised further.

This award demonstrates demand from Epping Forest District Council for a complete stairlift service for Disabled Facilities Grants: supplying straight-flight and curved-track equipment, installing it, and providing warranty and maintenance support. A credible future competitor would need to deliver both track types and manage the work as an integrated service, rather than offer equipment alone. The framework call-off route also indicates that suppliers seeking comparable council work need to be positioned to compete through the relevant assisted-living framework. The procurement is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so smaller specialists may be relevant competitors where they can demonstrate the operational capacity to supply, install and support stairlifts across the council’s requirement. The selected supplier was a large company.
