## Summary

York St John University is seeking a contractor to install one new internal accessible personnel or platform lift at Kings Manor, Exhibition Square, York. The lift must serve the ground and first floors, improving access to the building while respecting its listed heritage status. This is a building-works contract for lift installation (CPV 45313100), with the lift itself classified as a lift (CPV 42416100). The university’s Estates Team is responsible for the requirement. The work is at Kings Manor in York.

The university invited offers through an open competition under a below-threshold procedure. The procurement reached tender, with bidders invited to submit offers. This is a single-lot contract, with an estimated gross value of £100,000. The contract period is 1 December 2026 to 31 December 2027. The deadline for enquiries was 11 October 2026 at 12:00; the offer submission deadline was 23 October 2026 at 12:00. Evaluation gives 40% to price and overall value for money, 30% to programme and timescales, 15% to previous heritage experience and 15% to environmental concerns. Electronic submission is allowed.

The opportunity suits lift installers able to deliver an accessible internal personnel or platform lift serving two floors in a listed heritage building. Suppliers should be able to plan and complete installation in a setting where accessibility improvements must be balanced with heritage considerations. Previous heritage-building experience is directly assessed, alongside the proposed programme, timescales and approach to environmental concerns, so relevant project examples and a credible delivery plan are commercially important. The competition is also marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. A specialist lift contractor with appropriate installation capability, heritage experience and capacity to meet the programme could be well placed to compete.
