Summary of the contracting process

Inverclyde Leisure is buying fitness equipment for its leisure facilities, with delivery and use centred on the Waterfront Leisure Complex in Greenock. The requirement covers strength, cable, plate-loaded and other gym equipment for the organisation’s premium One Life clubs, Fitness For Less venues and Strength Shed brand. A separate lot covers One Life Health, requiring specialised premium equipment for fitness, strength and resistance training, as well as wellness, recovery and longevity-focused services. Suppliers may also need to describe their existing programmes, functionality and digital platforms, including associated costs. This is a goods procurement for fitness equipment, classified under CPV 37440000. Inverclyde Leisure is the buying organisation and acts as a central purchasing body.

The procurement has reached tender: Inverclyde Leisure invited offers through a selective innovation partnership procedure. Electronic submissions are required in English, with bids to be submitted by 15 October 2026 at 12:00 noon; the second-stage invitation date is 15 October 2026. The estimated value is £1,200,000 for each lot. Lot 1 covers Premium Fitness and Budget Fitness Equipment; Lot 2 covers One Life Health. Suppliers can bid for a maximum of two lots, and five candidates will be invited to the second stage. Each lot has a contract period of 1,800 days, with an optional 24-month extension. Both lots are evaluated 50% on quality or cost and 50% on price. Bids must remain valid for 60 days and variants are not allowed.

This opportunity suits manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers of commercial gym and fitness equipment able to provide complete equipment specifications across strength, cable and plate-loaded systems. Relevant capability includes supplying premium equipment for branded leisure clubs and equipment supporting fitness, resistance training, wellness, recovery and longevity services. Suppliers competing for the One Life Health lot should also be able to explain their existing programmes, functionality and digital platforms, together with associated costs. The requirement is suitable for businesses with the capacity to support a multi-year leisure-facilities contract and, where needed, an extended service period. Companies can compete for both lots, subject to the two-lot bidding limit, and should be prepared for a quality- or cost-led assessment as well as price evaluation.
