Summary of the contracting process

Herefordshire Council procured the design and build of a replacement lift at the Town Hall on St Owens Street, Hereford. The requirement covers lift supply, installation and associated building works, with the purpose of replacing an existing lift and providing a completed functioning installation. It is a works contract focused on lifts and lift installation (CPV 42416000). Delivery is at the council’s Town Hall in Hereford. The appointed contractor is expected to manage the design-and-build solution rather than only supply equipment, so the opportunity is relevant to lift manufacturers, specialist lift installation contractors and construction businesses able to coordinate both design and site works. The requirement is for one lift replacement project for Herefordshire Council.

This below-threshold procurement has been completed following an open competition. The tender deadline was 18 June 2026 at 12:00, with enquiries closing on 11 June 2026 at 17:00. Morris Vermaport Ltd was awarded the contract on 17 July 2026, and the contract was signed on 17 July 2026. The signed contract is valued at £98,379.57 excluding VAT, or £118,055.48 including VAT. The contract runs from 18 July 2026 to 17 July 2027, with an option to extend by up to a further three months, to 17 October 2027. Evaluation weighted quality at 60% and cost at 40%. The original estimated value was £120,000 excluding VAT, or £144,000 including VAT.

This procurement shows Herefordshire Council’s demand for a complete lift replacement delivered through a design-and-build route. A credible future supplier would need practical lift engineering and installation capability, together with the ability to manage design, construction coordination, testing and handover at an occupied or operational public building. The contract requirements indicate that strong evidence would include supervision and monitoring of works, reliable compliance management, and control of subcontractors against the same obligations. Suppliers would also need to produce accurate as-built drawings, test certification and operation and maintenance manuals for new installations. Experience updating a health and safety file in line with the CDM 2015 Regulations would be important, alongside the capacity to deliver a single-site council project.
