Summary of the contracting process

Wales and West Housing Association Ltd is procuring works to replace the existing single lift at Gerddi'r Ffynnon in Aberystwyth. The scope covers dismantling the current lift, removing and disposing of the equipment, then designing, supplying and installing the replacement. The appointed contractor must test, commission and set the lift to work. This is a lift installation and building-services works requirement, including associated repair and maintenance activity. Delivery is in Aberystwyth, Wales. The opportunity is therefore relevant to lift manufacturers, lift installation contractors and building-services firms able to manage the complete replacement process from design and removal through to commissioning and operational handover.

The procurement reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. Bids were to be submitted electronically, with an electronic auction forming part of the process. The enquiry deadline was 25 September 2026 at 17:00, and the tender submission deadline was 9 October 2026 at 17:00. The contract period runs from 31 October 2026 to 13 February 2027. The estimated value is £160,000 excluding VAT, or £192,000 including VAT. There is one lot. Evaluation is based on price weighted at 70% and quality weighted at 30%, with the detailed requirements set out in the tender pack.

This opportunity suits a lift contractor or a specialist building-services firm that can provide an end-to-end replacement service for a single lift. Relevant capability includes safely dismantling existing lift equipment, arranging its removal and disposal, designing a replacement system, supplying and installing the equipment, and carrying out testing, commissioning and setting to work. The requirement may also suit small and medium-sized enterprises. Suppliers should be able to coordinate the works as a complete package and demonstrate the technical delivery capacity needed to take the lift from the existing installation through to a commissioned replacement. Firms offering only isolated supply, removal or maintenance services may be less well aligned with the full scope.
