Summary of the contracting process

Angus Council procured a framework for supplying and delivering recycled domestic furniture and starter-pack goods in Angus, Scotland. The requirement supports around 350 households a year. Products include single and double beds, mattresses and bedding; wardrobes and drawers; sofas and suites; ovens, hobs and microwave ovens; and starter packs containing cutlery, crockery, pots, pans and other household essentials. The procurement is mainly domestic furniture, with associated domestic appliances, beds and bedding, cooking utensils and soft furnishings. The work is intended to provide basic household equipment for people moving into homes or otherwise requiring essential furnishings. Delivery and supply are to take place within Angus, with Angus Council acting as the buyer and central purchasing body.

This completed open-procedure framework was evaluated on 70% price and 30% quality. The tender deadline, bid opening and start of the award period were all 22 July 2026 at 12:00. Each of the two lots had an estimated value of £344,000, described as historic spend for indicative purposes rather than guaranteed future expenditure. Both lots were recorded as cancelled in the lot data, but each has an active award to Forfar Resource Store and Furniture Recycling Project Angus (F.R.P.A.). Each award has an active contract signed on 11 August 2026, valued at £258,000. Each lot has a 720-day contract period, with optional extension periods of up to 12 months. Two bids were received for each lot; both lots allowed electronic submission and did not allow variants.

This procurement demonstrates recurring public-sector demand for suppliers able to source, recycle, assemble where required and deliver a broad range of household furniture, appliances, bedding and starter-pack contents. A credible competitor would need to cover mixed product categories rather than a single furniture line, maintain dependable stock or sourcing arrangements, and coordinate deliveries to households across Angus. The successful supplier profile included two small and medium-sized local organisations, and both lots attracted two bids, indicating that smaller firms could participate. Businesses with practical experience in furniture reuse, household-goods supply, appliance provision, logistics and quality-controlled delivery would be well placed when Angus Council next reviews this requirement. Suppliers should also be able to meet electronic purchasing, payment and invoicing arrangements and demonstrate quality alongside competitive pricing.
