Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council procured furniture supplies for Filwood Community Centre. The requirement covers furniture and furnishings, including office furniture, domestic appliances other than lighting, and cleaning products. It is a goods purchase rather than a service or construction project. Delivery is in England, with the procurement title identifying Filwood Community Centre as the intended facility. The council is the buying organisation and will use the supplies to equip or furnish the community centre. The opportunity is therefore relevant to furniture manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and fit-out suppliers able to provide a broad range of furniture and associated furnishing products for a public community facility.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 14 August 2026 to Showcase PSR through a direct award from a framework. The awarded value is £45,666. The contract runs from 15 August 2026 to 31 January 2027. The tender submission deadline was 14 August 2026 at 23:59. Bristol City Council selected one supplier, and the award is active. The procurement method was a direct award, with the tender described as a furniture supply requirement via framework. The published information identifies the purchase as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The contract value and dates apply to this single awarded requirement.

This award gives furniture suppliers a clear indication of Bristol City Council’s demand for furnishing a community facility through a framework route. A credible future competitor would need to supply a broad furniture and furnishings range, with the operational capacity to coordinate delivery for a public-sector premises in England. Relevant businesses include manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and specialist commercial furniture suppliers able to handle mixed product requirements rather than a single item line. Framework appointment or access to an appropriate framework is commercially important because this purchase used a direct award route. The requirement was identified as suitable for SMEs, so smaller suppliers with dependable fulfilment and public-sector delivery experience may be well placed when comparable demand returns.
