Major Adaptations in Service User Homes Pre-Market Engagement

Pre-Market Engagement

The provision of Stairlifts, Ceiling Track Hoists, Modular Ramps, Step Lifts and Through Floor Lifts is a cost-effective method of adapting the home environment to make it more accessible. Furthermore, there is potential to reduce the impact on the environment by using recycled equipment when possible.

The Council is looking to tender a Framework Agreement to establish four single provider Framework Agreements which will involve the installation, maintenance, repair, LOLER inspection and recycling of the four items of equipment:

• Stairlifts

• Ceiling Track Hoists

• Modular Ramps

• Vertical Lifts (step lifts & through floor lifts)

Outcome

The desired outcome of this exercise is for Commissioners to obtain information and insight from Providers of this service provision in shaping the new contract/service specification.
