## Summary

The procurement process involves the Department for Education, which is based in London, seeking contracts for the supply of air filtration devices. This initiative falls under the goods category, specifically in the ventilation equipment sector, with a total contract value of £611,115. The procurement was executed through a selective method, involving a call-off from a framework agreement, with the contract period starting on 14 December 2021 and concluding on 14 December 2022. The procurement stage has been completed with the award made to Rexel UK Ltd on 10 December 2021, and the tender was published on 10 January 2022.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in the manufacture and distribution of ventilation equipment or air purification solutions. Companies that can demonstrate compliance with specific technical specifications and have the capacity to deliver these devices across selected educational settings in England would be well-positioned to compete. Additionally, businesses with experience in public sector contracts may find this to be a valuable opportunity for growth within the education sector.

## Notice

There is consensus that DfE guidance on ventilation should reflect that of Cabinet Office, Scotland and Ireland and recommend the use of CO2 monitors to help education and childcare settings identify areas for improved ventilation. Having purchased C02 monitors to help identify areas of poor or limited ventilation, DfE are now looking to purchase up to1,000 air filtration devices as a countermeasure to SARS-CoV-2 transmission in poorly ventilated rooms. These devices are being reserved for those spaces that are identified as 'most in need' and where action to address ventilation issues is more complex. The Department for Education needs to purchase up to a total of 1,000air filtration devices that conform to the technical specification. The Department for Education also requires the supplier to distribute all the devices to selected educational settings within England based on eligibility criteria assessed by the Department for Education. Devices offered via the marketplace would need to be available to be delivered to educational settings within England(c.51k).
