UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Northumbria University at Newcastle Upon Tyne bought glass meeting pods for its Coach Lane Campus. The requirement is for office furniture supplied as glass-enclosed meeting pods, intended to provide meeting space on the university campus. This is a goods requirement rather than a construction or consultancy service. The buyer is Northumbria University at Newcastle Upon Tyne, a public authority based in Newcastle Upon Tyne. The procurement concerns provision of the pods, with delivery associated with the university’s Coach Lane Campus in Newcastle Upon Tyne. The relevant classification is CPV 39130000, office furniture. The requirement was arranged as one lot covering the provision of the glass meeting pods.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded on 19 August 2026. It used a selective procedure, with the award made below threshold under a framework, and was non-competitive. Wagstaff Bros Limited trading as Wagstaff Interiors Group was selected as supplier. The awarded value is £155,000 gross. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 October 2026, with signature scheduled for 31 August 2026. The process contained one completed lot, covering the full glass meeting-pod requirement. The award is active, while the tender itself is complete. No separate evaluation criteria or detailed scoring basis is recorded for the award.

This award demonstrates demand from Northumbria University for specialist workplace furniture that combines glass meeting pods with supply and delivery to a university campus. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement would be interior fit-out businesses, office-furniture manufacturers, pod specialists and experienced distributors able to provide compliant glass meeting spaces at institutional scale. Credibility would come from demonstrable experience delivering comparable office or education-sector installations, reliable manufacture or sourcing, and the operational capacity to complete a concentrated supply programme. Competitors should also be able to manage delivery coordination in a live campus environment and provide products suitable for professional meeting use. The selected supplier was an SME, showing that a specialist smaller business can satisfy this type of requirement.
