Procurement of for the supply, installation, servicing, and recycling of lifting equipment funded by Disabled Facilities Grants

 

Yes

The purpose of this report is to obtain approval to tender for a works contract to private sector housing for:
•the design, supply, installation, and servicing of Through Floor Lifts and Step lifts
•the design, supply, installation, servicing, and recycling of stairlifts.
The aim is to procure a sole supplier for each type of equipment countywide, to ensure consistency and speed of delivery. At present individual work orders are undertaken for each purchase and a wide variety of products are being installed preventing any recycling of stairlifts.
Due to the aggregate value of the works for each type of equipment being supplied and installed across the area, a longer-term contract is required. In respect of the stairlift lot, this would then progress to the development of recycling of this equipment subject to the appointed supplier successfully delivering on the design, supply, installation and servicing countywide.
The annual budget allowance for this contract is approximately £750,000.00 in total and this will be funded from the Disabled Facilities Grant budget.
The contract will be an initial 2 years with the possibility of an extension for a further 2 years.
If the contract was extended to run for the full 4 years, then the value would be £3 million plus an additional vat amount due to the recycling element of the stairlifts.

 

The decision taker will consult with Assistant Director for Housing and Assistant Director of Resources as part of the Gateway Process.
