This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically for office furniture, and is based in multiple locations including one site in Scotland and two in England, as well as one in Wales. The tender period ends on 28th July 2017, with a contract start date of 7th August 2017 and a completion date of 31st December 2017. The procurement process is a single supplier tender intended to transform learning environments to better cater to different learner styles and behaviours. This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in educational furniture solutions. Companies that can provide quality, adaptable furniture designed for collaborative and social learning spaces would be well-suited to compete. As this project serves as a pilot for future potential rollouts, successful bidders could benefit from long-term partnerships should the initiative extend to additional training providers following the pilot's outcomes. ## Notice CITB are looking to change the delivery of Functional Skills (England), Core Skills (Scotland), Essential Skills (Wales) in English and Maths for CITB construction apprentices, by changing the learner environment to accommodate different learner styles, learner preferences and learner behaviours. A major part of this will be to change the furniture; the types and styles of chairs and tables; furniture which can be rearranged to suit different learners and different styles of teaching. CITB therefore wishes to procure a single supplier to provide furniture for collaborative and social learning spaces at each of four training providers (1 in Scotland/ 2 in England/ 1 in Wales). These four spaces have been provisionally selected by the CITB Apprenticeships team from their existing provider network. The environment would prioritise delivery of Functional/Core/Essential Skills to CITB construction apprentices, but it will also be available to support other groups of learners. The intention is to provide a quality furniture solution which would act as a vehicle for enhanced learner engagement and a catalyst for accelerated progression. This is a one off procurement; however it is part of a pilot with a view to the idea being rolled out to other providers if the outcomes arising front this procurement are successful. Any roll out does not form part of this procurement. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4366510b-63d7-42d9-882c-d2cd2c4359fa | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not applicable | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 14 Jul 2017 | | Submission deadline | 28 Jul 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 6 Aug 2017 - 31 Dec 2017 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY TRAINING BOARD | | Locality | NORFOLK | | Post town | Peterborough | | Postcode | PE31 6RH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH5 Norfolk | | ITL 3 | TLH52 North and West Norfolk | | Local authority | King's Lynn and West Norfolk | | Electoral ward | Bircham with Rudhams | | Westminster constituency | North West Norfolk | | Delivery location | TLL Wales, TLM Scotland | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 39 - Furniture (incl. office furniture), furnishings, domestic appliances (excl. lighting) and cleaning products ### Codes - 39130000 - Office furniture ## Release History - 14 Jul 2017 at 10:53 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4366510b-63d7-42d9-882c-d2cd2c4359fa - 14 Jul 2017 at 10:41 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4366510b-63d7-42d9-882c-d2cd2c4359fa ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4366510b-63d7-42d9-882c-d2cd2c4359fa 14th July 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/4b3de046-8e83-4412-907c-3d549842c0d3 Tender Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/e9bd3019-a439-4012-8ef2-7df6e81026db ITT ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
