Summary of the contracting process

Middlesbrough Council procured modernisation and refurbishment of the passenger lift at West Middlesbrough Hub, a children’s centre in Middlesbrough. The work concerns a two-floor hydraulic lift with two perpendicular doors. Its existing capacity of 1,000kg, for 10 people, was to remain unchanged. The requirement is lift refurbishment and associated construction work, rather than supply of a new lift or a change to its capacity. The site is West Middlesbrough Hub in Middlesbrough; the council is the buyer. This is a specific building-services requirement for suppliers able to modernise an existing hydraulic passenger lift while retaining its operating configuration and load rating.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Durham County Council. The contract was signed on 2 September 2026, at an awarded value of £62,829.50. The opportunity was run as a mini-competition through NEPO408, using a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition notice. Two bids were recorded. The refurbishment was arranged as one lot, which is recorded as cancelled, while the award is active; no cancellation reason is provided. Price was the stated award criterion. The contract status is active, but no contract period or start and end dates are stated. The award therefore records a selected supplier and signed contract, with the lift refurbishment’s specified scope and unchanged capacity applying to the West Middlesbrough Hub site.

For suppliers tracking repeat demand from Middlesbrough Council, this award shows a requirement for modernising an existing hydraulic passenger lift in a children’s centre, rather than replacing it or changing its rated capacity. A credible competitor would need the technical capability to refurbish a two-floor lift with perpendicular doors while retaining the 1,000kg, 10-person capacity, and the resources to carry out construction work at an operational public building. The buyer used a mini-competition through NEPO408 and assessed bids on price, so suppliers should be able to compete through that route and price a clearly scoped refurbishment competitively. The award to a large public-sector organisation shows that a supplier’s delivery model and capacity must be suitable for a council-scale building project; the recorded competition attracted two bids.
