Summary of the contracting process

Wolverhampton Homes Limited procured passenger lift services for 73 varied passenger lifts across Wolverhampton. The requirement covers planned inspection, servicing and maintenance in accordance with legislative obligations and the housing provider’s requirements. The supplier must operate a regular, agreed service programme, provide response breakdown and call-out services during normal and out-of-hours periods, and deliver lift refurbishment where needed. Refurbishment should support compliance with applicable disability access requirements where possible. This is primarily a building-services maintenance requirement, with associated lift installation and refurbishment works. The buyer is Wolverhampton Homes Limited, a public authority housing organisation. Delivery is throughout the city of Wolverhampton, making local or regionally mobile lift engineering providers particularly relevant.

This procurement has been awarded following a selective procedure under a framework, with competition not used for this call-off. The single lot is complete. The contract was awarded to Lift and Engineering Services on 27 July 2026 for £2,000,000, with a gross value of £2,400,000. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029, with an option extending the maximum period to 31 August 2030. The extension is conditional on the awarded supplier delivering a consistently satisfactory service during the initial term. A contract signature milestone was scheduled for 12 August 2026. The procurement is categorised as services with associated works, covering lift maintenance, repair and installation-related activity.

This award shows sustained demand from Wolverhampton Homes for a substantial, multi-site passenger-lift maintenance service rather than isolated repairs. A credible future competitor would need in-house or managed capability to inspect, service and maintain varied passenger lifts, operate a dependable planned-maintenance programme, and provide responsive call-outs during both normal and out-of-hours periods. Experience of lift refurbishment is important, particularly where work can improve compliance with applicable disability access requirements. Suppliers should also be able to demonstrate robust legislative compliance, service reporting, fault-response arrangements and the operational capacity to support 73 lifts across Wolverhampton. The successful supplier is an SME, indicating that specialist lift engineering businesses can compete for this type of public-sector requirement through a framework route.
