Summary of the contracting process

Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust bought modular office furniture in the form of capsule desks, described as working pods for the library. The pods were intended to give the Trust’s training and education team suitable learning environments for staff and visitors. This is a furniture supply requirement rather than a building or training service. The buying organisation is Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, and the stated delivery location is the Trust’s Bradford Royal Infirmary site in Bradford. The requirement was for a set of pods; the procurement does not describe further furniture types or installation work.

The procurement was awarded to Emergent Crown Contract Office Furnishings Limited following a below-threshold limited competition. The single lot is complete, and the award is recorded as active. The contract was signed on 16 February 2026, for a period running to 16 March 2026. Its stated contract value was £21,325 excluding VAT (£25,590.24 including VAT). The contract was later terminated on 24 September 2026; the termination rationale is recorded as contract completed. Implementation ended on 29 April 2026, with a final value of £21,037.60 excluding VAT (£25,245 including VAT). No evaluation criteria are recorded.

For suppliers of modular office furniture, this award shows Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust buying capsule desks to create usable learning spaces for staff and visitors. A credible competitor would need to supply furniture suited to a library or similar learning environment, with products that support focused individual work and fit the buyer’s intended setting. The successful supplier was an office-furnishings company, so relevant product supply capability is central to this requirement. The work was a small, single-lot purchase rather than a large multi-site furniture programme, and the route was limited competition below the procurement threshold. Suppliers seeking comparable work should be equipped to respond to a focused competition for modular furniture and demonstrate that their products meet the practical needs of a hospital training and education team.
