This report requests approval to award a
contract for the provision of the inspection, servicing,
maintenance and repair of straight and curved stairlifts, vertical
through floor lifts, step lifts and overhead track hoists,
installed in domestic properties in Tameside and Oldham.
Oldham has a history of collaboration with Tameside to procure this
provision: in 2014 we jointly procured the service with Tameside
council, with Tameside as the lead authority holding the contract

report requests that approval is given for Tameside Council to
award a new contract for this provision following a tender
process.
