Summary of the contracting process

Ceredigion County Council procured lift-maintenance services for the servicing and repair of passenger and goods lifts. The requirement covers work delivered in Wales and was set up as a dynamic purchasing system, indicating a managed route for appointing suppliers to this type of maintenance requirement. The buying organisation is Ceredigion County Council, based at Penmorfa in Aberaeron. The procurement falls within the services category and is classified under CPV 50750000 for lift-maintenance services. It is relevant to businesses that inspect, service, maintain and repair both passenger lifts and goods lifts, particularly those able to provide these services across Wales. The scope is focused on operational lift maintenance rather than lift supply, installation or wider building-services work.

This procurement has been completed following a restricted procedure using a selective method. The tender submission deadline was 27 June 2026, and the contract was awarded on 27 June 2026 to RJ Lifts Group Ltd. The awarded value was £839,700 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 6 July 2026 to 26 May 2033. The award is active and the tender status is complete. The requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award information identifies one supplier and one overall requirement, rather than separate awards for different lots. The evaluation basis recorded for the process is the restricted-procedure route; detailed quality or price weightings are not set out in the available procurement information.

For lift-maintenance businesses, this award provides a clear example of Ceredigion County Council’s demand for a long-term servicing and repair capability covering passenger and goods lifts across Wales. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need the technical ability to maintain different lift types, diagnose faults, carry out repairs and support ongoing safe operation over a substantial service commitment. The buyer’s use of a restricted procedure and dynamic purchasing system shows the importance of being able to qualify for a structured public-sector purchasing route and then deliver reliably against its requirements. The stated suitability for SMEs and VCSEs indicates that smaller specialist providers can be relevant, provided they can demonstrate sufficient operational capacity, dependable response arrangements and experience in lift maintenance and repair.
