Summary of the contracting process

Coventry University bought lift maintenance services for Coventry University Group sites. The work covers statutory servicing, planned preventative maintenance, reactive repairs, emergency call-outs and condition surveys, with additional reactive work potentially instructed under agreed rates according to operational needs. This is facilities engineering work focused on lifts, hoists and escalators, rather than lift installation or replacement. The procurement was let through the NOE CPC Specialist Estates Engineering and Maintenance Services framework, in its lifts, hoists and escalators category. The buyer is Coventry University, and the service location is Coventry University Group sites. A lift-maintenance contractor with the resources to service and repair equipment across the university group would be working to a broad, ongoing maintenance requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Concept Elevators (UK) Ltd trading as andwis lifts. The award was made under a limited procedure without a prior competition, through the NOE CPC Hard FM framework; the stated justification refers to exclusive rights. One bid was recorded, and price was the award criterion. The contract was signed on 4 September 2026 and is valued at £52,450. The initial term runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2028, with two possible 12-month extensions at the University's discretion, which could extend the contract to 31 July 2030. The value covers planned maintenance and reactive maintenance provision priced for the initial term; additional reactive works may be instructed under the schedule of rates. The tender's sole lot is marked cancelled, despite the active award and contract data.

For lift-maintenance businesses, this award shows Coventry University Group buys a joined-up service spanning statutory compliance servicing, planned preventative maintenance, responsive repairs, emergency attendance and condition surveys. A credible competitor at the next relevant procurement would need the technical capability and operational coverage to maintain and repair lifts across university sites, respond to urgent call-outs and carry out condition assessments, alongside the capacity to manage planned work. The buying route used was an established specialist estates engineering framework, and the recorded evaluation focused on price; suppliers would therefore need to offer competitive, clearly structured pricing for planned and reactive maintenance, including rates for additional instructed work. The selected supplier was a large business, indicating the contract was awarded to a supplier able to deliver this multi-site requirement at scale.
