Summary of the contracting process

Strathclyde Partnership for Transport is procuring services to maintain and repair escalators and lifts across its estate in Glasgow, Scotland. The scope covers all SPT Subway stations, bus stations and corporate offices, including planned and responsive maintenance and repair of escalators, lifts, elevators, hoists, conveyors and related equipment. This is a services contract for a supplier able to support transport infrastructure and operational buildings. The requirement is intended to keep passenger and workplace vertical-transport systems functioning safely and reliably across multiple sites. It also includes related services that SPT may purchase from the appointed contractor. Community benefits are required and must be delivered through the Glasgow City Region Community Benefits Hub.

The procurement has reached tender: SPT invited offers through an open procedure. Bids were to be submitted electronically in English by 23 October 2026 at 12:00, with bid opening at the same time in Glasgow. The contract duration is 1,800 days, with an extension subject to performance and financial standing. SPT may purchase additional related services from the appointed contractor without limiting their volume or value, and alternative bids are not allowed. Evaluation is weighted 70% price and 30% technical quality. Bidders must be registered with Companies House, or an equivalent overseas professional or trade register. Financial suitability requires either a Dun & Bradstreet failure score of at least 51 or specified profitability, liquidity and gearing evidence.

This opportunity suits lift and escalator maintenance specialists with the workforce, systems and capacity to cover a large, distributed transport estate and corporate premises. Suppliers must provide names and qualifications for staff assigned to the work, and should be able to operate against service-level agreements and low-service-damages provisions. SPT requires evidence of three similar contracts completed within the previous three years, ideally in a comparable environment and at a similar scale in volume and value. The requirement is suitable for established UK companies and overseas businesses with the required registrations. Financially robust firms should be able to evidence a Dun & Bradstreet failure score of 51 or above, or meet the specified profitability, liquidity and gearing tests. Bidders must also explain how they will decarbonise service delivery where possible and deliver community benefits through the designated regional hub.
