Summary of the contracting process

Bangor University procured lift-maintenance services for its university sites in Bangor, Gwynedd, covering passenger and goods lifts and personal lifting equipment. The requirement also encompasses stairlifts, wheelchair platform and step lifts, through-floor lifts, hoists and ceiling track hoists, escalators, evacuation chairs and related equipment. Services include planned and reactive maintenance, servicing, testing, potential LOLER inspections, removal and disposal of existing equipment, and reconditioning or refitting of stairlifts and hoists. The procurement is for services, classified as lift-maintenance services (CPV 50750000). The wider Lot 2 scope covered delivery across the UK, while Lot 1 concerned installation and refurbishment at Bangor University sites. EN Procure Ltd acted as the central purchasing body for the framework.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through an open procedure as a framework call-off arrangement. The framework included two lots, with Lot 1 for installation and refurbishment and Lot 2 for servicing and maintenance. The estimated Lot 1 value was £20,000,000 and Lot 2 value £10,000,000; the overall tender estimate was £30,000,000. Lot 1 was evaluated 65% on quality and 35% on price; Lot 2 was evaluated 60% on quality and 40% on price. Six suppliers were awarded Lot 1 and ten were awarded Lot 2. Lot 1 and Lot 2 framework contracts were signed on 15 July 2025, for 1,440 days. A further Lot 1 call-off was awarded to RJ Lifts Limited on 2 September 2026, with a contract value of £560,000.

This procurement demonstrates sustained demand from Bangor University for specialist lift and accessibility-equipment maintenance, installation and refurbishment. Credible competitors would need broad technical capability across passenger and goods lifts, stairlifts, hoists, escalators, evacuation chairs and other lifting equipment, with the ability to provide inspection, testing, planned maintenance and responsive repairs. Suppliers should be able to cover work across relevant university sites and, for the wider framework requirement, operate across the UK. The awarded supplier group included both SMEs and large businesses, showing that the requirement can suit firms of different sizes where they can demonstrate capacity and quality. The buyer also expected collaborative delivery and a contribution to training, work placements, education, apprenticeships, employment and wider environmental, social and governance activity.
