PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Prison Service is procuring works to replace lift doors at HMP Shotts. The requirement covers the design, supply and installation of automatic lift landing doors across all four levels, together with replacement lift car doors and associated parts in both Allanton Hall and Lamont Hall. New door operators are also required in both halls. The work is for the prison site at Shotts, Scotland, and falls within lift installation works (CPV 45313100). The appointed contractor will be responsible for delivering the physical replacement works and the associated design and supply activities, rather than providing a routine maintenance service.

The procurement has reached the tender stage: the Scottish Prison Service invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. Responses were due by 13 October 2026 at 14:00, and bids were to be opened at 16:00 the same day. The contract is scheduled to run from 4 January 2027 to 19 March 2027. Bids must remain valid until 16 November 2026. There is one lot, with variants not allowed, and the award decision was scheduled to begin on 13 October 2026 at 16:00. The requirement is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The procurement sets out an intention to award a contract following evaluation of tender responses against the request for quotation.

This opportunity suits lift installation contractors able to design, source and install automatic landing and car doors, door operators and associated lift components. Suppliers will need the technical capability to coordinate a complete replacement package across four levels and two prison halls, including work on both landing and car doors. It is suited to businesses with the workforce, site management and installation capacity to complete a concentrated programme between January and March 2027. Relevant experience in lift door replacement, lift modernisation or comparable installation projects would help bidders demonstrate their ability to manage the technical interfaces and deliver safely within an operational custodial environment.
