## Summary

The procurement process pertains to the supply of Event Chairs for The Houses of Parliament, seeking to procure between 1,500 to 1,600 chairs to enhance their capacity for substantial and prestigious events. The buying organisation, Parliament UK, is located in London, with the tender in the award stage. The initial contract value was estimated at £194,000, with active suppliers involved in the award process effective from 11 January 2016, and extending until 31 March 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in furniture manufacturing and supply, particularly those with the capacity to fulfil bulk orders and offer long-term maintenance solutions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in producing compatible event seating would find this contract particularly advantageous, allowing them to grow their market presence within the public sector sphere.

## Notice

The Houses of Parliament wishes to procure 1500 - 1600 Event Chairs to maximise our capacity to service large scale and prestigious events at short notice. These will include State visits, and commercial events in Westminster Hall, the Sovereign's Robing Room and the Royal Gallery. The Event Chair must harmonise with and be compatible with the existing event furniture and features on the estate. Whilst the main focus of this tender is the provision of a bulk order of event seating, the product and spare parts should be available for purchase to maintain the collection for a minimum of 10 years. The estimated value of the contract includes the initial bulk purchase and provision for replacements over the period of the contract.
