## Summary

The procurement process involves the University of the West of England (UWE), specifically through its buyer, HE Portal. This contract, titled "021/2017FC Frenchay Library Design & Furniture Supply - AWARD," is related to the provision of office furniture, with a total value of £137,103. The procurement method used was a restricted procedure, and the contract was awarded on 21st July 2017, with the contract period running from 22nd July 2017 to 31st December 2017. The project aims to enhance the Frenchay Campus Library's facilities, reflecting the use of modern technology and providing a conducive learning environment for students. The delivery is set to occur at the university's location in Bristol, South West England, with the tender stage having been completed.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the office furniture and interior design sectors, particularly those capable of supplying innovative and adaptable furniture solutions. Large-scale suppliers like Godfrey Syrett Limited and Portsdown Office Ltd, who have the capacity to fulfil significant orders and meet the specific design requirements outlined by UWE, would be well-suited to engage in similar future tenders. Companies aiming to expand their footprint in the education sector could benefit from understanding the needs and preferences of academic institutions, especially in creating functional and appealing learning spaces.

## Notice

The University's aim is to create a 21st century library on the Frenchay Campus, delivering a central hub of technology enhanced, digitally agile, inter-disciplinary, outstanding learning environment that prepares students for practice. We work to ensure the UWE Libraries can continue to respond to innovations in information access, learning, teaching and research in support of UWE's academic priorities. Frenchay Campus Library is a well-used 24 hour environment serving all faculties. We are completing interim works in summer 2017 ahead of a bigger transformative redevelopment project. The aim of these interim works is to make improvements to enhance the environments across all the floors in response to student feedback and to trial different settings and ways of interacting with students.
