## Summary

The procurement process was conducted by Cumberland Council, a regional authority aimed at improving the Community Equipment Service within the health sector. The procurement centred around the "Purchase and award of contract for Tracking Hoists to support Community Equipment Service," under the industry category of Lifting equipment for the healthcare sector. This procurement was executed under the ESPO Framework 364, specifically Lot 6, which includes Stairlifts, Steplifts, and Vertical Through-floor Lifts. The contract involves the supply and installation of ceiling track hoists, to be implemented from 1st July 2025 to 30th June 2027 across the Cumberland region (UKD1). Operating under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, the procurement was completed without prior publication of a call for competition, thereby opting for a direct award method due to its low value. The contract was awarded to Prism UK Ltd with an estimated contract value of £100,000.

This procurement presents significant business growth opportunities for suppliers specialising in mobility equipment and healthcare solutions. Enterprises adept in the installation, servicing, and maintenance of lifting equipment, particularly those familiar with domestic settings and assisting impaired mobility individuals, will find this tender attractive. Given the direct award method under a framework, such businesses can leverage their existing relationships within established frameworks to gain an advantageous position. In addition, the potential contract extensions underscore a lasting opportunity for continuous involvement, assisting Cumberland Council in transforming and streamlining the equipment service landscape to enhance health and wellbeing for its residents.
