## Summary

Northamptonshire Partnership Homes, acting as the buyer, has initiated a procurement process for a lift consultant to undertake a replacement and upgrade programme for lifts managed by the organisation.

The full tendering process is anticipated to commence in early August 2025, with the contract period expected to run from 1st January 2026 to 31st December 2031.

Businesses with the capacity to deliver bespoke lift solutions and manage projects from conception to completion, including post-installation testing, would be well-suited to compete for this opportunity.
