## Summary

The Cirrus Consortium, specifically organised under Cirrus Purchasing Ltd, is seeking suppliers for the "Cirrus Consortium Kitchen Materials Supply Framework." This procurement initiative falls under the goods category, valued at £30 million, and targets the kitchen furniture and equipment industry across England, Scotland, and Wales. The procurement process is currently in the award stage, with the framework agreement expected to span four years from November 1, 2017, through to October 31, 2021. Although the tender period ended on September 4, 2017, this framework is still open for call-off contracts by all members of the consortium and relevant contracting authorities, as defined by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those engaged in kitchen manufacturing and supply, such as cabinet makers, appliance manufacturers, and wholesale distributors of kitchen accessories. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find this a valuable opportunity to expand their market reach, as the framework encourages procurement from various service delivery models, including direct deliveries, store replenishments, and kitchen design services. Competitors should be prepared to meet a diverse range of kitchen material needs outlined by the consortium members and consider tailoring their services for bespoke specifications during the call-off contracts.
