Summary of the contracting process

Solihull Community Housing Limited procured stairlifts and lifting equipment for its housing services, specifically stairlifts (CPV 44115600). The requirement covers the supply of equipment for delivery in the United Kingdom and forms part of the Northern Housing Consortium’s Stairlifts and Lifting Equipment Framework. The buyer is a public authority housing organisation based in Solihull. The procurement was organised as one lot and is intended to support the provision of stairlift equipment to the organisation’s housing service. This is a goods contract rather than a construction or general maintenance opportunity, so it is most relevant to manufacturers, distributors and specialist suppliers of stairlifts and associated lifting equipment able to work within a public sector framework arrangement.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded following a selective procedure under the framework, without a further competitive process for this call-off. SAVARIA LIFTS (UK) LTD was appointed on 10 September 2026. The contract was signed on 10 September 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2029. It may be renewed through two individual 12-month periods, with a maximum extension date of 31 March 2031. The awarded value is £1,200,000 excluding VAT, or £1,440,000 including VAT. The award was above the relevant threshold. Evaluation was conducted through the framework award route, and the record identifies one completed lot and one appointed supplier.

This award demonstrates established demand from Solihull Community Housing Limited for stairlift equipment delivered through the Northern Housing Consortium framework. The appointed supplier is a large specialist organisation, indicating that credible competitors are likely to need a substantial operational capability rather than only a general supply offer. Relevant businesses would be manufacturers, authorised distributors or specialist lifting-equipment providers with a reliable range of stairlifts, the capacity to fulfil a sizeable housing-sector requirement, and the systems needed to operate through a public procurement framework. Experience supplying public or social housing organisations would help demonstrate suitability, particularly where the requirement involves repeat equipment provision across a housing service. Framework access and the ability to meet its call-off requirements are commercially important for competing when this buyer’s requirement next reaches the market.
