In plain English
Brunelcare, a Bristol-based housing and care charity, wants a specialist lift company to maintain and repair 55 lifts (passenger lifts, platform lifts and stairlifts) at 20 sites across Bristol and Somerset. The contract covers planned servicing, 24/7 emergency call-outs, all repairs and parts, and statutory testing for one fixed annual price per lift over five years from 1 April 2027.
What the buyer wants
• Planned maintenance and statutory testing of all 55 lifts across 20 sites, including many care homes and extra care schemes • 24/7 emergency call-out with fast response and a high first-time fix rate, covering all repairs and parts • One fixed annual price per lift for five years, with clear communication to the charity throughout
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
Most small firms would be ruled out by the need to provide round-the-clock emergency response across 20 sites in two counties while carrying full repair and parts risk for 55 lifts at a fixed annual price, and by the notice's warning that any change to the asset list would be treated as a known risk.
How to bid
This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
