Summary of the contracting process

Bristol City Council procured the supply of furniture for Filwood Community Centre, a community building being expanded and renovated in Bristol. The requirement covers furnishing the building with furniture and associated furnishings. It is a goods opportunity rather than a works or services contract. The council is the buying organisation and the delivery location is Bristol. The requirement was treated as a single furniture supply package, covering the complete furnishing need for the renovated community facility. The selected supplier, Showcase PSR Limited, is based in Essex. The procurement is relevant to furniture manufacturers, commercial furniture suppliers, furniture distributors and businesses able to furnish public community buildings to an architect-led specification.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Showcase PSR Limited. Bristol City Council used a limited procedure with an award without prior publication of a competition, approaching suppliers on the CCS Framework RM6308 Furniture and Associated Services, Lot 1, for quotations. One bid was received. Quotes were compared against the specification and value offered, with price as the stated award criterion; the architect identified Showcase PSR as meeting most of the specification and offering best value. The award is active and the contract was signed on 7 August 2026. Its awarded contract value is £70,000 including the published currency of GBP. The process was treated as outside the relevant directive’s scope.

This procurement indicates demand from Bristol City Council for complete furniture supply for a substantial community-building refurbishment. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to source and supply a broad range of furniture, interpret and satisfy an architect-led specification, and provide quotations that demonstrate strong value against price. The selected supplier was assessed as meeting most of the specification, so technical compliance and the ability to deliver the required mix of furnishings would be important alongside cost. The route also shows the relevance of participation in the CCS Furniture and Associated Services framework, particularly its first lot. Larger suppliers, or smaller specialists with suitable framework access, public-sector experience and dependable delivery capacity, would be well placed.
