UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Liverpool City Council intends to procure the supply and installation of replacement wetside and dryside locker units for four Lifestyles centres: Alsop, Garston, Aquatics and Ellergreen. This is a goods procurement covering locker units and the associated installation work, including units for wet changing areas and dry changing areas. The work will be delivered at the named Lifestyles centres in Liverpool. The opportunity is therefore relevant to manufacturers, distributors, specialist commercial locker suppliers and contractors able to provide both locker products and their installation. Businesses focused solely on unrelated construction, general facilities management or services without locker supply capability are less likely to fit the stated requirement.

The procurement is at the planning stage: Liverpool City Council has announced an intention to procure and has issued a pre-market engagement form before the full tender. Interested suppliers are expected to return the form by 8 September 2026. The buyer currently expects the contract to run from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. The procurement is above the relevant threshold and is divided into one lot covering the locker supply and installation. The lot is still being planned, so the engagement is for market input rather than a tender submission. The published information does not set out an expected procurement procedure, contract value, award criteria or bid requirements.

This engagement will suit suppliers with experience designing, manufacturing, distributing or installing commercial locker systems for leisure, aquatic or changing-room environments. Relevant businesses may include locker manufacturers, specialist suppliers with installation teams, and firms able to coordinate delivery and fitting across several Liverpool sites. The requirement covers both wetside and dryside applications, so suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate that their products and installation approach can accommodate different changing-area environments. Small and medium-sized enterprises are identified as suitable for the procurement. Businesses should use the pre-market engagement to explain their product range, installation capability, approach to replacing existing units and experience delivering comparable multi-site work, helping them prepare for the later tender.
