Summary of the contracting process

Hillcrest, a body governed by public law based in Dundee, United Kingdom, has completed the procurement process for a furnishing contract titled "PR/R038 - Furnishing Contract." The contract deals with the supply and management of home furnishing services for temporary and supported accommodation. This procurement, classified under the industry category of furniture, furnishings, domestic appliances, and cleaning products, followed an open procedure method. The tender initially opened on 14 January 2025 and saw adjustments to submission deadlines, with final bids due by 13 February 2025. The contract was awarded on 10 March 2025, and is valued at £470,022.48. The scope of supply is targeted for delivery within the UKM5 region.

This furnishing contract presents notable business growth opportunities, especially for companies specialising in furniture and furnishing products. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in managing large-scale supply contracts would be well-suited to compete. The award criteria favoured quality (70%) and price (30%), indicating a strong market for businesses that can deliver superior products at competitive rates. The inclusion of electronic submission and the open procurement method create a level playing field for businesses to participate. Potential future retendering in 2028 or potentially in 2030, if an extension is invoked, further enhances long-term engagement possibilities.
