Summary of the contracting process

Ordnance Survey Limited, Great Britain’s mapping agency, procured office furniture for its head office in Southampton. The requirement covered the supply of furniture and related furnishings for workplace use. The delivery location was Southampton. This was a goods procurement, focused on office furniture rather than professional services, construction or mapping technology. The buyer is a public undertaking responsible for geographic information used by government, businesses and individuals. The requirement was handled as a single package, covering the head-office furniture need as a whole. Businesses relevant to this requirement include office furniture manufacturers, wholesalers, fit-out suppliers and furniture specialists able to supply and deliver workplace furniture to an organisational headquarters.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to DOH Consulting Limited. Ordnance Survey used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 8 December 2025 for office furniture, with a stated period from 8 December 2025 to 31 January 2026. Its value was £75,790 excluding VAT and £90,948 including VAT. The contract was terminated on 7 August 2026; the stated rationale classifies this as contract completed, and implementation records an end date of 31 March 2026. The award covered the full office-furniture requirement and was not divided between multiple suppliers or separately valued lots. The selected supplier was DOH Consulting Limited.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a defined demand from Ordnance Survey for a substantial office-furniture supply at its Southampton headquarters. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need a range of commercial office furniture, the ability to understand and fulfil a complete workplace-furniture package, and reliable delivery and installation arrangements for a head-office environment. Experience supplying public undertakings or comparable large organisations would help demonstrate dependable contract performance, purchasing capacity and operational control. Suppliers should be able to manage a sizeable furniture order as one coordinated requirement, maintain product availability, provide consistent quality across multiple furniture types and support delivery to Southampton.
