Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Lancashire procured passenger-lift service and maintenance services for its estate. The requirement covers passenger lifts and mobility lifts through the ProcurePublics Passenger Lifts Framework, including maintenance activity classified as lift-maintenance services (CPV 50750000). The contracting authority is based at Lancashire Police in Hutton, near Preston, and delivery is in the North West of England. The procurement was intended to replace the existing arrangement with a new service contract for the buyer’s lift infrastructure. The scope is relevant to lift manufacturers, specialist lift-maintenance companies and facilities-management businesses with the technical capability to service passenger and mobility lift systems. The award relates to one completed lot covering this lift service requirement.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. It used a selective procedure, with the contract awarded under a framework without a competitive call-off. Pickerings Europe Limited was awarded the contract on 15 July 2026. The contract was signed on 22 July 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2028, with annual extension options up to 31 July 2030. The awarded value is £179,811.12 excluding VAT, or £215,773.34 including VAT. The award was made against Lot 1 of the passenger-lifts and mobility-lifts framework. The stated basis for extension is satisfactory service performance. A contract-signature milestone was scheduled for 30 September 2026, although the contract record shows it had already been signed.

This award demonstrates established demand from the Police and Crime Commissioner for Lancashire for planned and responsive maintenance of passenger and mobility lifts at public-sector premises. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need specialist lift-maintenance capability, experience servicing both passenger and accessibility-related lift systems, and sufficient operational capacity to support sites across the North West of England. The route to market is framework-based, so businesses would need either to hold a suitable position on the relevant passenger-lifts framework or to secure access through an equivalent approved procurement route. Service reliability will be commercially important: the buyer’s stated approach links extensions to being satisfied with service performance. Larger specialist providers and capable facilities-maintenance firms with lift expertise are best placed to compete.
