## Summary

This recent public procurement process undertaken by Great Places Housing Group Limited encompassed the Lift Maintenance and Repairs Services for their properties, focusing on passenger, platform, step, through-floor lifts, and stair lifts. Based in Manchester, this sub-central government public authority conducted the procurement through an open procedure, adhering to the Procurement Act 2023. The awarded contract, signed on 1st April 2026 for a five-year term, is valued at GBP 1,294,143 gross and covers locations including Lancashire, Greater Manchester, Cheshire, Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and South Yorkshire. The process reached the award stage on 18th June 2026, with Pickerings Europe Limited identified as the supplier, having been selected from 14 bids, demonstrating interest mainly from SMEs. The awarded contract involves comprehensive maintenance services, making it substantial within the services category.

This tender offers considerable opportunities for businesses within the lift maintenance and repair industry to expand their portfolios through active engagement in a large-scale service contract. Companies with capabilities in timely responsive repairs, emergency handling, and a solid health and safety training regime, particularly those with accreditation like ISO 9001 and membership in relevant industry bodies such as LEIA, stand well-suited to compete in such bids. This opportunity aligns particularly with large-scale service providers capable of offering 24/7 emergency response in line with stringent legislative requirements. Successful engagement in this contract could lead to further collaboration prospects and expansions, as the contract includes options for installation services and responding to emergent requirements or organisational changes during its term.
