## Summary

Citizen Housing Group Ltd, a sub-central public authority in Birmingham, UK, is in the planning stage of a procurement process for LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations) inspection services. The aim is to gather information about the market capacity to provide these services while ensuring compliance with statutory lifting equipment inspections across their sites, ideally without needing additional insurance. This is not a call to tender; rather, it's an engagement to shape future procurement specifications. Key details include a deadline for engagement with the market set for 21 November 2025, and subsequent stages are planned to start from 1 April 2026, running through to 31 March 2027, with the potential for renewal until March 2028.

This procurement process opens significant opportunities for businesses specialising in lift-maintenance services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs). Engaging in this early phase can help businesses influence the specification, commercial approach, and contract structure, mitigating potential future procurement challenges. Companies with expertise in providing comprehensive inspection reports, compliance certificates, and optional remedial services without necessitating additional insurance will find this engagement particularly advantageous. By participating, businesses can position themselves as preferred vendors for upcoming tender opportunities from Citizen Housing Group Ltd.

## Notice
