Summary of the contracting process

Milton Keynes City Council established a multi-supplier framework for household goods and associated services for properties in Milton Keynes. The requirement covers the supply and installation of white goods and domestic electrical appliances; the supply, delivery and installation of household furniture, including beds and emergency beds; and the supply, delivery and installation of flooring. The framework uses primary and secondary suppliers for each area, with the primary supplier approached first and the secondary supplier used where the primary cannot meet supply or timescale requirements. This is a goods procurement covering domestic appliances, bedroom furniture and floor coverings. The council is the buyer and the work is delivered within Milton Keynes.

The procurement has been awarded and the contracts are active; all four contracts were signed on 28 August 2026 following an open procedure. Family Fund Trading Limited and My Student Essentials Ltd were awarded white goods and associated electrical appliances for £500,000 excluding VAT (£600,000 including VAT). Family Fund Trading Limited and FMS Interior Services Ltd were awarded beds and emergency beds, each for £50,000 excluding VAT (£60,000 including VAT). Family Fund Trading Limited and Crown Flooring Limited were awarded flooring for £150,000 excluding VAT (£180,000 including VAT). The contracts run from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029, with a possible one-year extension. Evaluation was based on price at 60% and quality at 40%.

This procurement shows a recurring requirement for suppliers able to source, deliver and install household goods for council properties, with capacity to operate as either a primary or secondary framework supplier. Relevant businesses include domestic appliance distributors and installers, bedroom furniture and bed suppliers, emergency-response furnishing providers, and flooring contractors. Credible competitors need dependable stock access, delivery and installation capability, and the operational capacity to meet short service windows: white goods were measured against supply and installation within five working days, standard furnishings against delivery and assembly within three working days, and emergency furnishings against next-day delivery. Businesses should also be able to demonstrate service quality alongside competitive pricing, since quality represented 40% of the evaluation. The opportunity was suitable for SMEs.
