Somersham Parish Council is seeking a contractor for the design, supply, installation and commissioning of an external passenger lift at the Parish Council office (The Norwood Building) to improve accessibility for wheelchair users, people with reduced mobility, parents with pushchairs and other visitors. The council requires a turnkey solution including site survey and design; supply and installation of an external passenger lift; any associated structural, electrical and building works; alterations to the existing changing room (preparatory building work will be undertaken by a separate contractor); testing, commissioning and certification; and user training, operation manuals and warranty documentation. The lift must comply with the Equality Act 2010, Building Regulations and applicable British Standards. Tenders should demonstrate relevant experience and provide company profile, details of similar projects completed within the last five years, proposed lift manufacturer and model, an outline design proposal, programme of works and anticipated duration, a breakdown of costs, details of warranties and maintenance packages, evidence of insurance, health and safety policy, risk assessment methodology and references from comparable public sector or community projects. A site visit is required prior to submission. Approximate platform size is 1100 x 1480 mm with two stops located at the Norwood Building. Apply to The Executive Officer, Somersham Parish Council, The Norwood Building, Parkhall Road, PE28 3HE.

This could be ideal for lift contractors and accessibility specialists with experience delivering external passenger lift installations for public or community buildings. Key considerations include strict compliance with the Equality Act 2010, Building Regulations and British Standards, coordinating works with a separate preparatory building contractor, meeting the specified platform size (1100 x 1480 mm) and providing a full turnkey service including structural, electrical, testing, certification and maintenance/warranty arrangements.
