Summary of the contracting process

Carmarthenshire County Council procured a dynamic purchasing system for the supply and installation of mobility and lifting equipment for people needing accessible homes and care-related facilities. The scope covers stairlifts, ceiling track hoists, through-floor lifts and external platform lifts, delivered across Carmarthenshire. Stairlift requirements include straight units and curved units with at least one bend, fitted on either the wall or bannister side of the staircase. The work is primarily equipment installation, supported by healthcare lifting equipment and lift installation services. The council is the buyer and expects suppliers to support wider social and environmental community benefits alongside the core supply and installation service.

This is a completed, awarded procurement rather than an invitation to tender. It used a selective restricted procedure through a dynamic purchasing system, with mini-competitions for installation work. The original response deadline was 22 December 2025 at 14:00, later extended by 12 months under the tender provisions; invitations were estimated for 23 December 2025. The DPS term is 1,440 days, with an option to extend in one-year periods for up to a further four years. Awards cover stairlifts, ceiling track hoists and through-floor lifts, with active contracts including £38,620 for stairlifts, £4,545 for ceiling track hoists and £65,385 for stairlifts. Cost carried 100% of the stated evaluation weighting, and bids were submitted electronically in English or Welsh.

The supplier profile evidenced by the awards is predominantly small and medium-sized mobility, healthcare-equipment and lift-installation businesses operating in Wales. Credible competitors would need to supply, survey and install stairlifts, ceiling track hoists and through-floor or platform lifts, including bespoke curved-staircase installations. The repeated awards show demand for both individual installations and larger batches of stairlift work, so suppliers need practical installation capacity, responsive local coverage and the ability to manage multiple customer requirements. The DPS required a minimum of five candidates at the second stage and did not allow variants. Suppliers should also be able to work with the council on recruitment, training, SME supply-chain opportunities, mentoring, education and community initiatives, including CPD support for council staff.
