UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Rochdale Borough Council procured stairlifts and lifting equipment services for its area. The requirement covers the provision of stairlifts and lifting equipment, with repair and maintenance services identified as the work category. The contract supports the council’s requirement for this equipment and associated service over the contract term. The award was made through the Northern Housing Consortium’s Stairlifts and Lifting Equipment Framework, for the framework’s relevant category. The recorded delivery location is the United Kingdom; the procurement description identifies Rochdale Borough Council as the purchasing organisation and does not give a more specific delivery address.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Simply Moving and Sleeping Ltd. The council selected the supplier through a selective award under an existing framework, rather than a standalone open competition. The award was made on 18 September 2026 and the contract was signed that day. The contract value is £375,000 excluding VAT (£450,000 including VAT). The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029, with two individual 12-month renewal periods available, extending the maximum period to 30 September 2031. The procurement was arranged as one lot, and the award covers the full requirement. No separate award evaluation criteria are stated for this framework call-off.

For suppliers considering comparable future requirements from Rochdale Borough Council, this award demonstrates demand for stairlifts and lifting equipment alongside repair and maintenance services, sourced through the Northern Housing Consortium framework. A credible competitor would need to show it can supply and support this equipment as a combined service, with the operational capacity to meet the council’s requirement over a multi-year contract and the ability to deliver through the relevant framework route. Simply Moving and Sleeping Ltd, an SME, was selected for the work, showing that a smaller specialist supplier can compete successfully in this market. Suppliers should assess whether they can meet the framework’s terms and deliver reliable equipment and ongoing maintenance at a scale suited to a borough-wide public-sector requirement.
