Summary of the contracting process

The Metropolitan Police Service, based in New Scotland Yard, London, has completed the procurement process for "Lift Inspection Services" within the technical inspection services industry category. This procurement, initiated under the title "Lift Inspection Services," involved a direct award following a restricted tender process that failed to receive any bids. The process culminated in an active contract award on 9 December 2024 to TSL Inspections Ltd, valued at £616,495. The procurement method utilised was a limited procedure, bypassing the call for competition due to the specific conditions outlined under the directive. The service delivery location is London (UKI), and the contract includes an option for two 2-year extensions.

This tender presents significant opportunities for SMEs, particularly those specialising in technical inspection and lift equipment services. Businesses with robust technical capabilities and competitive costs stand a good chance of securing such contracts. Given the complexity and safety requirements of lift and lifting equipment inspections, companies that can demonstrate high technical quality and efficiency will find this sector attractive for long-term growth. TSL Inspections Ltd’s successful bid underscores the potential for specialised service providers to collaborate with public sector bodies like the Metropolitan Police Service on crucial infrastructure and safety projects.
