## Summary

The Cambridgeshire District Councils are leading a procurement process for the design, supply, and installation of office furniture, aimed at enhancing their administrative office spaces in Cambridge. This project, titled "Design, Supply and Installation of Furniture," is classified under the office furniture industry (CPV code 39130000). The procurement process is currently at the Award stage, with the contract value set at £105,000, having been awarded to FMS Interior Services Ltd. The contract period is scheduled from May 31, 2017, to March 31, 2018, following a tender period that ended on March 30, 2017. The project focuses on creating well-designed workspaces at Mandela House and 130 Cowley Road, with a goal to improve workspace efficiency and promote flexible working practices in line with modern office trends.

This tender presents excellent opportunities for businesses specialising in office furniture design and installation, particularly those capable of delivering innovative workspace solutions that support flexible and mobile working. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are strongly encouraged to participate, as the City Council's procurement approach is inclusive of smaller suppliers. The project not only aims to maximise the use of office space but also to create environments that foster collaboration and productivity, making it an appealing prospect for companies with expertise in modern office layouts and ergonomic furniture solutions.

## Notice

Cambridge City Council has embarked on a strategy to rationalise its administrative office stock by refurbishing retained office accommodation and introducing "SMART" working practices into newly refurbished offices at Mandela House, 130 Cowley Road and The Guildhall, Cambridge. The Refurbishment works at Mandela House and Cowley road are about to begin and it is anticipated that offices be re-occupied by December 2017. The City Council is seeking furniture and office layout design expertise for the offices at Mandela House and 130 Cowley Road which will provide well laid out desk spaces and provide environments that encourage new ways of working in a modern working environment. The design should support the Council to achieve its aims to encourage mobile working, flexible meeting spaces, quiet and communal spaces alongside more traditional office layouts which maximise the use of floor space available. It should help the council meet its aim to reduce desk provision to a maximum desk to staff ratio of 7:10 and to maximise floor space utilisation to a standard of a maximum 6m2 per workstation.
