Summary of the contracting process

The City of Edinburgh Council bought reupholstery and repair services for rise-and-recline chairs, specialist seating, postural management systems and other daily-living aids used by its Community Equipment Loan Service. The work supports the continued use of equipment loaned through that service, including specialist seating and related aids. The contract concerns repair and upholstery work rather than the supply of new equipment. Delivery is for the Council’s service in Edinburgh. The requirement is classified as repair and maintenance services (CPV 50850000).

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Matrix Fife. The Council used an open procedure and placed the award through the Scottish Government’s Supported Businesses Dynamic Purchasing System. The contract was signed on 21 October 2026 and is active, with a value of £101,524. The procurement covered one lot for reupholstery of specialist seating and other daily-living aids for the Community Equipment Loan Service. One bid was recorded for the lot. The award information does not state an award date or a contract start or end date, so the signed date is the only dated contract event available here.

This award shows demand from Edinburgh Council for ongoing repair and reupholstery of specialist seating and daily-living aids used by a community equipment loan service. A credible competitor would need practical capability to assess and repair rise-and-recline seating, specialist seating and postural management systems, and to restore equipment for continued use. Experience working across a varied range of assistive equipment would be relevant, as would the capacity to handle repair work for a council service rather than a single product type. The route used was the Scottish Government’s Supported Businesses Dynamic Purchasing System, so suppliers seeking similar work would need to be eligible to participate in that system. The recorded award went to a large supplier, and a single bid was recorded.
