The contract focuses on goods, specifically office furniture, under the CPV code 39130000, and serves the agency's needs across various UK locations. The procurement followed a limited method as part of a framework agreement, awarded without prior publication of a call for competition, because it fell outside the scope of application of the directive.

Multiple suppliers, including Southerns Broadstock, Senator International Limited, and Showcase PSR Portsdown, have been awarded contracts for this procurement.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses already within or looking to enter the office furniture sector, particularly those with capabilities in supplying, assembling, installing, and refurbishing office furniture. Both SMEs and large enterprises can benefit from these opportunities, as evidenced by the involvement of companies of varying sizes. The tender was geared towards addressing the DVSA’s ongoing and project-specific furniture needs, making it a recurring opportunity for businesses ready to deliver high-quality solutions in a government setting. Businesses that can offer flexibility and value in furnishing services will find promising prospects in government contracts such as this.
