Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Wythenshawe Community Housing Group Limited procured planned preventative maintenance and servicing for passenger and goods lifts across its buildings portfolio. The requirement covers 40 lifts and is intended to keep the equipment maintained and safe for use. Lift maintenance is safety-critical: the buyer cited the need to maintain statutory compliance and avoid equipment failures that could affect accessibility or delay services. This is a service contract for lift servicing and maintenance, rather than the supply of new lifts or a wider building-maintenance package. The procurement concerns the Group’s buildings portfolio; the listed delivery areas span England, but do not identify individual properties or a more precise delivery location.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Allied Lifts Services Division (UK) Limited. Wythenshawe Community Housing Group used a direct award without a prior competition, citing continuity with its domestic-lifts contract, Allied’s asset knowledge and proven performance, and the safety and mobilisation risks of changing provider. The award was dated 23 October 2026. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and is active, with a value of £72,500. The stated service period is one year, with a one-year extension available at the buyer’s discretion. The requirement was treated as one lot, although its recorded status is cancelled; the award and contract are active. Price was the stated award criterion, and one bid was recorded.

For suppliers preparing for a comparable requirement from Wythenshawe Community Housing Group, credibility would depend on delivering planned maintenance and servicing across a portfolio of around 40 passenger and goods lifts, while protecting continuity of operation. The buyer explicitly valued detailed knowledge of the installed assets, proven performance and the ability to avoid disruption during mobilisation. Suppliers would need to demonstrate that their maintenance arrangements can support safe, reliable lift operation and statutory compliance, including LOLER obligations, without compromising accessibility or service continuity. This was a direct appointment linked to an existing domestic-lifts contract, so experience with the buyer’s equipment and the ability to integrate with its established service arrangements were commercially relevant. The stated evaluation basis was price, alongside the buyer’s operational rationale for continuity.
