Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council bought refurbishment works to an electric passenger lift and its controls. The work falls within construction and building refurbishment, with the lift equipment and control system as the focus. Delivery was in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The requirement was arranged as a single lot and formed part of the council’s building maintenance and asset improvement activity. The named buyer was East Riding of Yorkshire Council, a local public authority. The awarded supplier was a specialist lift company, indicating that the scope involved lift refurbishment rather than general construction alone. The work concerned an existing passenger lift, so relevant suppliers would need to be able to assess and refurbish lift installations and associated controls at a public-sector site.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Classic Lifts Ltd. The council used a limited competition below the applicable threshold. The contract was signed on 5 February 2026, with work scheduled from 1 to 22 March 2026. Its value was £62,416.72 excluding VAT and £74,900.06 including VAT. The award covered one lot for the lift refurbishment works. The contract is recorded as active, and the award is active. No award evaluation criteria are recorded in the process details, so the basis on which bids were compared cannot be described. This outcome shows the buyer selected one supplier for the complete requirement, rather than making separate awards for different parts of the work.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible competitors would need specialist capability in electric passenger lift refurbishment, including work on lift controls, alongside the practical capacity to deliver a focused installation project at a council property. Experience assessing existing lift systems and carrying out refurbishment safely and reliably would be directly relevant. The selected supplier, Classic Lifts Ltd, is an SME, showing that this scale of requirement was delivered by a specialist small business rather than necessarily requiring a large national contractor. Suppliers able to manage a complete lift-and-controls package under a limited competitive process are likely to be well placed when the council next buys the same requirement. The award also evidences public-sector demand for refurbishment of existing passenger lifts in the East Riding of Yorkshire.
