Passenger Lift Maintenance, Service and Repairs Contract
Minutes:
RESOLVED:
That the Cabinet:
1. Accept the tender from RJ Lifts Group Ltd for the provision of passenger lift maintenance and repairs for corporate and housing properties for a period of 3 years from 1 November 2023 to 31 October 2026 and at the value of £123k per annum; and
2. Agree that this includes the provision to extend the contract for a further 2-year period (5 years in total), delegating approval of any extension to the Leader of the Council and Cabinet Member for Property, Highways & Transport, in consultation with the Corporate Director of Place.
Reasons for decision
The Cabinet Member for Property, Highways and Transport explained the important of good lift maintenance and moved the recommendations in the report, which Cabinet agreed, for a new contract for the passenger and good lifts service, repair and maintenance for all the Council’s housing and corporate properties. This followed a competitive tender exercise.
Alternative options considered and rejected
None, as there were statutory requirements for regular inspections of lifts.

Private - Whilst the Cabinet's decisions above are always made public, the officer report relating to this matter is not because it was considered in the private part of the meeting and contained information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the Authority holding that information) and the public interest in withholding the information outweighed the public interest in disclosing it in accordance with Section 100(A) and paragraph 3 of Part 1 of Schedule 12 (A) to the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended). |
