Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "UKRI-5187 Supply and Installation of Engineered Passenger Lift" was conducted by UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), a central government public authority based in Swindon, Wiltshire. The tender falls under the goods category and involves the supply and installation of an engineered passenger lift for the Crawford Building. This procurement used a limited competition method under the threshold, which often suggests selectivity in participant invitation. The contract was awarded to Omega Lift Services Ltd, a large supplier situated in Edinburgh, with the contract active as of 9th September 2025 and set to end on 31st March 2026. The contract, formally signed on 8th September 2025, has a total gross value of £84,368.98.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses, particularly those specialising in engineering, manufacturing, and installation of bespoke lifting solutions. The requirement for a tailored passenger lift highlights the need for firms with expertise in designing customised lift systems rather than offering standard off-the-shelf products, making it an attractive proposition for specialised lift service providers seeking to expand their portfolio in public sector projects. Engaging with a central government entity like UKRI can open up further business growth opportunities within the governmental sector.
