UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council procured lift repair and maintenance services for lifts across its estate, including housing blocks throughout Leicester. The work is described as a critical service to keep the council’s lifts maintained and repaired. The requirement falls within lift-maintenance services (CPV 50750000).

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Midland Lift Services Limited. Leicester City Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, for a single lot. The contract was signed on 4 June 2026, with a term running to 3 December 2026 and an option, at the council’s discretion, to extend by a further four months, to 3 April 2027. Its value is £170,000 excluding VAT (£204,000 including VAT).

This award demonstrates demand from Leicester City Council for dependable lift maintenance and repair across a geographically dispersed public estate, including housing blocks. A credible supplier for a future requirement of this kind would need the technical capability and operational capacity to maintain and repair lifts across multiple sites, respond to a critical service need, and sustain reliable service delivery. Experience coordinating work across housing and other council properties would be relevant. The council used a direct award without competition for this contract, so this outcome also shows that the requirement was not tested through an open tender.
