What is being bought
Southend-on-Sea City Council is looking to award to a single supplier for the Provision of a Maintenance, Inspection and Repair Service for Lifting Equipment. The equipment that requires this service is generally located in private dwellings for the use of Southend-on-Sea residents and their carers, or may be located in the community equipment service warehouse. Start Date: 1st September 2026 End Date: 31st August 2030 Estimated Value: £450000 Please note the contract award notice was published yesterday, however the estimated value required updating. This notice therefore replaces the previously published notice. For the avoidance of doubt, only 1 contract is to be awarded. This contract award notice triggers an 8 working day standstill. Providing no challenge is received, standstill will end at midnight on the 27th of July. Please note all bidders have been notified of this.
