What is being bought

Published requirement description

Lifts and hoists provide an aid to independent living for individuals who have mobility related

issues. As such, they support people to be more independent and to be cared for in their own

home, thus also reducing the need for a more complex care and support package. This also

benefits carers by making it easier for them to provide care to the individual.

Lifts and hoists are supplied to Cheshire East residents by a number of separate contracts, in

response to successful Disabled Facilities Grant applications. This service will maintain the

lift and hoist equipment once it is outside of its warranty period, to ensure that it continues

to be safe.

Review procedure

The Council will incorporate a standstill period at the point information on the award of the contract is communicated to tenderers. That notification will provide full information on the award decision. The standstill period, which will be for a minimum of 10 calendar days, provides time for unsuccessful tenderers to scrutinise the award decision before the contract is entered into. The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI No 102) provides for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland).
