## Summary

The East Sussex County Council has completed a procurement process for the tender titled "ESCC-RFQ-Furniture at Seaford Library". This project involves redecorating the Seaford Library located in South East, United Kingdom. The procurement method used was an open procedure with a contract value of 50,000 GBP. The contract period is from 11th April 2024 to 31st July 2024.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses in the furniture and design industry to provide items like soft seating, display units, and study spaces for the library renovation project. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are suited to compete due to the suitability specified in the tender. Companies with experience in providing furniture solutions for public spaces could benefit from competing in this tender stage, which has already passed the award stage.

## Notice

Seaford Library is located on the High Street of the town. The library is on two levels and is a large open plan space, providing stock to browse and borrow, reading and study space and free public computers. We are looking for a design that creates more clearly defined 'zones' within the library and includes private areas for quiet study and reading. We would also like a focus on the design of the reading area, located at the front of the library and visible from the High Street. This area should draw in customers and feel inviting, cosy and comfortable. As usage is changing, each library needs reviewing to ensure it meets the needs of customers now and into the future. We are seeing more customers that require study space (with or without electronic devices), good usage of the public computers and a need for more flexible use of the library space in general (i.e. groups wishing to use the space, including groups of adults/children for larger weekly events. It is also important customers are able to browse stock and be drawn in by a good level of display to demonstrate the different categories of interesting stock. In this project we are redecorating the library and are looking to change the layout, using existing shelving and adding new soft seating, furniture, display units and study spaces.
