## Summary

Liverpool City Council plans a phased replacement of communal changing-room lockers at five Lifestyles leisure centres: Garston, Ellergreen, Wavertree, Alsop and Peter Lloyd. The work covers wet-side and dry-side changing areas. The council wants a complete replacement service: survey the existing facilities, remove and dispose of the old lockers, supply and install new lockers, commission them, provide warranty support and hand over the completed project. The aim is to modernise ageing facilities, reduce maintenance and reliability problems, and provide durable, consistent lockers and a more consistent customer experience across the participating centres. This is a supply-and-install project for leisure facility lockers, classified as leisure equipment.

The process is at planning: Liverpool City Council has stated its intention to procure, but has not issued an invitation to tender. It expects delivery in phases over a contract period from 1 February 2027 to 31 January 2028. Suppliers are being invited to contribute to market engagement through a questionnaire, with site visits also planned so they can inspect the facilities and locker spaces. The council expects to use that input to help define the specification. The questionnaire is due back by 13 October 2026. The procurement is for one lot and is considered suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. No procurement procedure, award criteria or estimated contract value is stated at this planning stage.

This project is likely to suit suppliers able to deliver a complete locker replacement rather than supply products alone. Relevant preparation includes the capacity to survey multiple leisure sites, plan phased work, remove and dispose of existing installations, supply suitable wet- and dry-area lockers, install and commission them, and provide warranty support and a clear handover. Experience working in wet leisure environments and coordinating work across occupied public facilities would be relevant to the stated requirements. The council is seeking a durable, standardised solution that improves reliability, appearance and consistency across its centres, so suppliers should be ready to explain how their products and delivery approach support those aims. Small and medium-sized businesses are identified as suitable for the procurement.

## Notice

his programme seeks to modernise ageing assets, improve the quality of facilities and create a consistent customer experience across Lifestyles centres. As part of this programme, the Council intends to undertake a phased replacement of communal wet-side and dry-side changing room lockers across a number of Lifestyles facilities, including Lifestyles Garston, Lifestyles Ellergreen, Lifestyles Wavertree, Lifestyles Alsop and Lifestyles Peter Lloyd. Existing locker installations across the estate have been subjected to prolonged use within challenging wet leisure environments and, in many locations, are approaching or have exceeded their anticipated operational life. The Council has identified increasing maintenance requirements, deterioration in appearance, reliability concerns and inconsistency in locker provision across sites. Full replacement has therefore been identified as the preferred option to ensure long-term sustainability and value for money. Liverpool City Council is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified supplier to deliver a complete locker replacement solution, including surveys, removal and disposal of existing lockers, supply of new lockers, installation, commissioning, warranty support and project handover. The overarching objective is to create a modern, durable and standardised locker solution that supports the wider Lifestyles Modernisation Programme and delivers a consistent customer experience across participating facilities.
