## Summary

The Uttlesford District Council is currently finalising an award for a contract titled "Lifts and Stairlifts (interim)", which pertains to the repair and maintenance services of electric motors. This contract was initiated due to the council's responsibility to maintain twelve passenger lifts and 51 stairlifts across various sheltered accommodation sites, ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations. The contract, valued at £58,800, has commenced on 9th January 2019 and will continue until 8th January 2020. This tender falls under the services category and was procured through an exceptions request method.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in lift and stairlift maintenance. Businesses equipped with expertise in servicing electric motors and a proven track record in meeting regulatory standards would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar contracts.
