The contract period is 90 days. Quality accounts for 40% of the evaluation and price for 60%; variants are not permitted. The contract uses the NEC4 Engineering and Construction Short Contract, June 2017 edition, with January 2023 amendments. Bids must be in English and remain valid for 120 days. Electronic submission is provided for. The requirement is divided into one lot covering the lift refurbishment. Community benefits and a subcontracting clause apply.

This requirement suits lift contractors with the technical capability to modernise mechanical passenger lifts and deliver associated installation, testing and servicing. Bidders must provide three examples of similar mechanical passenger lift refurbishment work completed within the previous five years. They must also demonstrate annual turnover of at least £100,000 relating to passenger lift refurbishment, supply and installation, for each of the specified four years. The successful contractor will need to take responsibility for principal designer duties under CDM regulations and coordinate design and installation compliance, reporting and applications. The scope also calls for assessing equipment intended for reuse and ensuring the refurbished lift meets current standards and accessibility requirements. Suppliers should be able to deliver the full refurbishment package and address the community-benefit requirement and subcontracting provisions. The published assessment gives greater weight to price than quality.
