Summary of the contracting process

The Chief Constable for Devon and Cornwall Police, acting as the buyer, is currently in the planning stage for a regional office furniture contract titled "Regional Office Furniture". This procurement is aimed at providing office furniture, including ergonomic chairs and desks, for the Five Forces of Avon and Somerset Police, Devon and Cornwall Police, Dorset Police, Gloucestershire Police, and Wiltshire Police. The procurement falls under the goods category and is scheduled with a start date of 1st June 2026, ending on 31st May 2031. The process is set in the UK region, with a critical milestone in market engagement scheduled for 12th December 2025. Businesses interested in participating are encouraged to contact Michelle O'Mahony for further details prior to this date.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in office furniture, particularly those that can supply ergonomic and specialist items, and have the capacity to fulfil contracts over multiple years. Given the suitability for SMEs, smaller enterprises are well-positioned to compete, especially if they have established capabilities in delivering high-quality office furniture solutions. Engaging in this procurement process could facilitate market expansion for businesses looking to establish a foothold in the public sector, particularly within the policing and sub-central government authority sectors.
