The process, initiated under an open procedure, focused on the modernisation of lifts, classified under the CPV code 42416100. The contract, awarded to Precision Lifts Limited, has a value of £223,090 and was signed on 18th July 2025. The project was located in Southend-on-Sea, UKH3 region, with key tender and award activities occurring between May and October 2025.

This tender opportunity provides significant prospects for businesses involved in the lift and elevator sectors, particularly those capable of offering quality products and services, as the evaluation criteria focused 60% on quality and 40% on price.
