Lift Maintenance and Installations

Tender description

Westminster City Council is undertaking a comprehensive re-procurement programme for its housing repairs, maintenance and works contracts, currently delivered through a portfolio of Term Partnering Contracts (TPCs). The Programme forms part of the Council's wider strategic approach to the management, maintenance and improvement of its housing portfolio and is being delivered through a multi-tranche procurement programme supported by a Strategic Alliance model. The Council manages approximately 21,000 homes across the City, including a significant number of high-rise residential buildings, listed properties and buildings located within conservation areas. As part of Tranche 2 of the programme, the Council intends to procure a new borough-wide contract for Housing Lift Maintenance, Repairs and Installations to replace the existing arrangement, which is due to expire in June 2027. This is a Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) and its purpose is to raise awareness of the forthcoming contract opportunity, stimulate supplier interest, as well as maximise market participation and competition. The Council is also seeking feedback to inform the development of its procurement strategy and term brief requirements. In particular, the Council wishes to consult the market on: • The proposed scope of services and overall contract requirements. • The proportionality, relevance and deliverability of the proposed minimum technical, competency, training, social value and sustainability requirements. • The proposed procurement approach, namely the award of a single borough-wide contract using the Open Procedure; and • Any other technical, operational, commercial or mobilisation considerations. Interested suppliers are invited to complete a Request for Information (RFI) Questionnaire and return it via the Council’s electronic tendering portal (Jaggaer) no later.
