Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Askham Bryan College bought the supply, delivery and installation of furniture for its Science Block at Askham Bryan College in York. The furniture is intended to support teaching, learning and related activities in the facility, and must be high-quality, durable and fit for purpose. This is a goods requirement focused on equipping a college science teaching building, rather than a general furniture supply across multiple sites. The stated delivery location is the college’s site in York.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Richardson Business Equipment. The award was made on 23 October 2026, with a value of £6,284.72. The contract period runs from 29 September to 30 December 2026. The buyer used a direct award procedure. The original procurement was estimated at the same value, and the tender deadline was 28 September 2026. The requirement was for the Science Block furniture as a single, whole contract; no separate lots are described. The recorded assessment basis and supplier selection criteria are not available in the procurement information, so the award outcome is the clearest indication of which supplier was selected.

For suppliers seeking to compete for a similar future requirement at Askham Bryan College, this award demonstrates demand for a modest, focused package of furniture for a science teaching facility. A credible supplier would need to provide durable, fit-for-purpose furniture suitable for teaching, learning and associated activities, and handle delivery and installation at the college’s York site. The selected supplier, Richardson Business Equipment, indicates that the buyer chose a business equipment supplier for this requirement. The procurement was made by direct award, so businesses should regard the route used for this particular purchase as relevant evidence of the buyer’s approach, rather than assume a future competition will use the same method. The published suitability flag indicates that the original requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.
