Summary of the contracting process

Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board procured works to replace the hoist ropes on No. 7 lift at Wrexham Maelor Hospital. This is a specialist lift maintenance and repair requirement, rather than a general building project, and the work was to be carried out at the hospital in Wrexham. The health board is the buyer, and the scope is limited to replacing the lift’s hoist ropes. Suppliers with relevant lift engineering capability are the natural fit for this type of requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Otis, which also signed the contract. The contract value was £10,509.20. The contract was signed on 20 July 2026; no contract period or award date is stated. The requirement was handled as a call-off from an established framework, with a direct award and no further competition. The lot is recorded as cancelled, although an active award and active contract are also reported. The stated award basis was price. One bid was recorded for the lot, from an SME. The buyer’s rationale says the framework allowed supplier selection without reopening competition and that the framework had been competitively procured.

For suppliers considering similar future requirements from Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board, this award shows demand for focused lift repair work at one of the health board’s hospitals. A credible competitor would need demonstrable experience and qualifications to replace lift hoist ropes safely, together with the technical capacity to work on hospital lift equipment. The work is narrow in scope, so specialist lift contractors are better placed than general construction firms. The buyer used an established framework call-off route and selected a supplier without a fresh competition; access to a relevant framework, and the ability to meet its terms, would therefore be commercially important. The recorded award was made on price, so competitive pricing would also matter alongside proven technical competence.

Procurement Information

The contract was awarded through a compliant call-off from an established framework agreement. The framework was originally procured and awarded following a competitive tender process in accordance with the relevant procurement legislation, with all required due diligence, selection, evaluation and award procedures completed prior to suppliers being admitted to the framework. In accordance with the terms of the framework, a direct award (call-off without further competition) was undertaken, as the framework provisions permitted the selection of a supplier without reopening competition. The award is therefore lawful as it is made under the terms and conditions of a properly established framework agreement, and no separate contract notice or further competition was required. All governance, financial, and procurement checks applicable to the call-off have been completed in accordance with organisational procedures and the NPS-CFM-0073-17 framework rules.
