UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Solihull Community Housing Limited procured stairlifts and lifting equipment for its housing operations. The requirement is classified as goods and covers lifts, hoists, escalators and related moving equipment, with the award specifically described as stairlifts and lifting equipment. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The procurement formed part of the Northern Housing Consortium’s Stairlifts and Lifting Equipment Framework and concerns one completed lot. It is therefore relevant to manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers of stairlifts, lifting equipment and associated hoisting products that serve housing providers or similar public-sector buyers. The purchasing organisation is based in Solihull and is the buyer for the requirement.

The procurement has been completed through a selective procedure as an award under a framework, without a competitive call-off. Solihull Community Housing Limited appointed PRISM UK MEDICAL LIMITED. The award was made and the contract signed on 10 September 2026. The contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2029, with two possible 12-month renewals extending the maximum period to 31 March 2031. Its value is £1,200,000 excluding VAT and £1,440,000 including VAT. The contract is above the relevant threshold and is active. The framework route and direct appointment determined the outcome; the published procurement data does not set out separate quality or price weightings.

This award demonstrates established public-sector demand for stairlifts and lifting equipment within social housing, delivered through a specialist framework route. Suppliers considering comparable work for Solihull Community Housing would need a product range covering stairlifts and other lifting or hoisting equipment, together with the operational capacity to support a substantial housing requirement. The appointed supplier is a large medical-equipment business, indicating that scale and specialist sector capability are relevant competitive signals. Experience of supplying public-sector or housing organisations and access to the relevant Northern Housing Consortium framework would also be commercially important, since this procurement was made under that framework rather than through an open competition. The requirement is a useful reference point for suppliers preparing for similar framework call-offs.
