## Summary

H M Revenue & Customs is currently seeking suppliers through a selective procurement method for the tender titled "Coloured Desk Tops." This initiative aims to enhance working environments by installing coloured desk tops in locations including Belfast, Bristol, and Croydon. The tender period ended on 24th September 2021, with a contract value of £89,182.50, starting from 30th September 2021 and set to conclude on 24th March 2022. The procurement falls under the goods category, specifically targeting desks.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) looking to expand their market reach. Businesses that specialise in office furniture manufacturing, particularly those capable of delivering bespoke solutions aligned with inclusive design principles, would find this an ideal opportunity to compete. Engaging in this contract could enhance their portfolio and facilitate long-term partnerships within the public sector.

## Notice

When the RC's was designed, HMRC Transformation DUX Team had not produced the Inclusive Design Guide (IDG) to the recognised standard it now is. Desks in Belfast, Bristol and Croydon were delivered with a white only finish. Since developing the IDG and from lessons learned it has been established that having a mix of muted coloured options provide a much better working environment for colleagues particularly colleagues with neurodiverse concerns, although this has been extremely well received by all colleagues. It is therefore agreed, via HMRC Estates WDI Steering Group, to retro fit the same percentage into Belfast, Bristol and Croydon to ensure all three RC are aligned to the rest of the estate and more importantly we meet our IDG requirement and give colleagues the best experience while working in our spaces. It should be noted that this is to be a DA to Senator as the original FFE supplier to Croydon RC to ensure the desk tops suite.
