## Summary

The procurement process involved the UNIVERSITY OF YORK, which sought to purchase furniture for the atrium of the LMB to match similar furnishings in the Piazza building. The contract, valued at £32,000, was classified under office furniture (CPV code 39130000). This direct procurement action was completed with the award given to BROADSTOCK OFFICE FURNITURE LIMITED. The tender period concluded on 13th June 2018, with the contract being effective from 14th June 2018 until 31st July 2018, all occurring in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses in the office furniture sector looking to expand their clientele, particularly for those who can provide stylish and functional furniture solutions. Suppliers that specialise in matching aesthetic designs for institutional settings, as well as those capable of responding to specific design requirements, will find themselves well-positioned to compete for similar tenders in the future. Additionally, businesses that can offer flexibility for furniture interchangeability across venues may enhance their attractiveness to contracting authorities.

## Notice
