The contract has been awarded to Orona Ltd and is set to last for five years, with the potential for a five-year extension contingent on performance and funding.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in specialised maintenance services, particularly those with expertise in closed protocol systems.

### Procurement Information

The lift installations installed in 26 Council properties by Orona are 'closed protocol' systems. The lift installations are stand-alone systems where the device manufacturer produces all the devices and control panels for the complete network and there is no compatibility with any other manufacturer's components. Therefore, the closed protocol lift installations can only be serviced, maintained, and repaired by qualified engineers from Orona Ltd.
