Southern Housing is procuring four separate contracts for lift modernisation works, covering four distinct batches of lift installation and refurbishment across its portfolio. Each contract, awarded to a single qualified contractor, will span an initial five‑year term with the option to extend for an additional five years, providing a maximum total period of ten years of service.
