## Summary

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services (hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust) is seeking to replace the existing lift within Ward 4 at Glangwili General Hospital (GGH). This tender, categorized under lift installation work (CPV: 45313100), is in the 'works' procurement category. It involves dismantling and removing the old lift, followed by the design, manufacture, supply, construction, installation, and commissioning of a new traction machine-room-less (MRL) stretcher passenger lift. The contract duration is one year and five months, including a twelve-month warranty/maintenance period. The procurement follows an open procedure, with a tender period closing on 8th November 2024. The project commenced in January 2025 and was awarded to KONE PUBLIC LIMITED COMPANY for £173,723 GBP.

This tender presents a significant business growth opportunity, particularly for companies specializing in vertical transportation systems, lift manufacturing, and large-scale construction projects. Businesses that excel in project management, health and safety, quality assurance, and technical support related to lift systems would be well-suited to compete. The tender process emphasizes social value and community benefits, aligning with the Well-being of Future Generations Act. Successful completion of this project could not only lead to further contracts within the NHS network but also enhance a company's portfolio in the healthcare infrastructure sector.

## Notice

Hywel Dda University Health Board (HDUHB) have a requirenment to replace the existing lift within ward four (4) at Glangwili General Hospital (GGH). The works required are comprised of the dismantling and removal of the existing lift equipment, followed by the design, manufacture, supply, construction, installation, and commissioning of one (1) traction machine-room-less (MRL) stretcher passenger lift enhanced with bed passenger lift features. The requirement shall be in place for one (1) year and five (5) months which includes a twelve (12) month warranty / maintenance period following the successful installation and handover of the new lift. Upon the conclusion of this maintenance period, the All-Wales lift maintenance provider will complete an inspection of the lift and absorb it into its contract portfolio. Scope of the Contract HDUHB are seeking to appoint a suitably qualified lift supplier to facilitate the replacement of the vertical transportation (VT) unit at GGH. The VT system must comprise of the following: - A simplex, 20 persons / 1500kg Traction MRL Trolley / Stretcher Lift with a rated speed of 1.0m/s, spanning 4 levels which shall be designed, manufactured and installed in compliance with the requirements of Welsh Health Technical Memorandum (WHTM): Lifts (WHTM08-02: 2017) where existing design constraints allow. - The existing lift is used to carry hospital beds. Its current dimensions are larger than the WHTM definition of a Trolley / Stretcher Lift. The New Lift will need to meet the existing dimensions and duty load as a minimum. For this reason, some features of the WHTM Bed lift specification will be necessary and incorporated into the design specification. - The hospital site operates entirely on essential power. This means the supply power to the lift will be fed from a generator periodically. The supplier should allow for this in their design submission. The Lift Contractor shall ensure that the design, manufacture, construction and installation of the lifts is undertaken in full compliance with the requirements of the Lifts Regulations 2016.
