Summary of the contracting process

The University of Cumbria has successfully completed the tender process for the provision of furniture for its new teaching block at the Lancaster Campus. This procurement, classified under office furniture (CPV ID: 39130000), was conducted using an open procedure and reached the award stage on 17th March 2017, following a tender period that ended on 3rd February 2017. The contract is set to run from 17th March 2017 to 5th June 2017, with a total contract value of £152,000. Businesses interested in this opportunity had to be prepared for a rapid proposal turnaround in the North West region of the United Kingdom, specifically in Lancaster (LA1 3JD).

This contract represents a significant opportunity for suppliers of office furniture, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to establish a preferred supplier status with the University of Cumbria. The successful supplier, Southerns Office Interiors Ltd, not only met the immediate requirements but also positioned themselves strategically for further business by supplying furniture to other university locations over a subsequent three-year period. This project offers SMEs in the furniture industry a chance to enhance their visibility and market presence within the educational sector.
