## Summary

The City of London is buying lift-maintenance services for housing in London. The requirement is classified as lift maintenance (CPV 50750000) and is listed as works. The procurement title identifies it as a housing lift maintenance contract, indicating maintenance of lifts serving the City’s housing. The buyer is the Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London. The selected supplier is Guideline Lift Services Ltd. The work is delivered in London. This is a defined, buyer-specific requirement for maintaining housing lifts, rather than a general building-maintenance contract.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Guideline Lift Services Ltd. The award date was 27 August 2025, and the contract was signed by both parties on 15 September 2026. The contract period runs from 5 January 2026 to 4 January 2029. The awarded value is £1,229,066. The buyer used a mini-competition through the SEC Lift Maintenance Framework, rather than a standalone open tender. The tender deadline was 30 July 2025. The description says the contract went to the highest-scoring supplier; no detailed scoring criteria are stated. The opportunity was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. There are no separate lot awards identified.

This award demonstrates demand from the City of London for housing lift maintenance delivered through a mini-competition under the SEC Lift Maintenance Framework. Suppliers targeting a future requirement from this buyer would need to be capable of maintaining lifts in housing and competing through the relevant framework route. The stated award basis shows that a strong evaluated submission mattered, so a credible competitor would need to demonstrate a convincing fit with the maintenance requirement and present a high-scoring offer. The procurement was marked suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller firms were considered eligible to compete. The selected supplier is described as a large business, showing that a larger provider can also meet the requirement. This is relevant to lift-maintenance specialists with the capacity to serve a public housing portfolio in London.
