## Summary

Derby City Council is currently managing the procurement process for office furniture products and services, as part of a tender initiative aimed at extending an existing contract originally set to end on 31 May 2021. The contract has been modified due to delays caused by Covid-19, leading to a proposed extension from 1 June 2021 to 31 March 2023. The procurement method is limited, allowing for an award without prior publication of a call for competition, with a significant contract value of £1,250,000 for the ongoing supply, delivery, and installation of office furniture across Derby, UK.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in office furniture production, delivery, and installation. Companies that can offer aesthetic solutions matching existing environments, as well as those capable of handling both small and large orders, are particularly well-suited to compete. With the Council anticipating significant long-term requirements post-Covid, this could be an excellent chance for businesses to engage in a lucrative procurement process, ensuring they can meet evolving governmental needs.

## Notice

Derby City Council has an existing contract for the supply, delivery and installation of general office furniture and associated products and services, due to end on 31/05/2021. The modification is due to unavoidable circumstances, including Covid-19, causing delay to some large scale projects which will require such furniture. The Council requires a supplier who would be able to match the aesthetic look of the furniture with existing sites. Spend within the existing contract, which commenced in June 2016, has been lower than anticipated (20% of originally estimated total contract value by April 2021, with over PS1,000,000 capacity in the contract remaining), in no small part due to the delays arising with some new build projects and potential changes of use for some existing sites. A 22 month extension to the current contract, from 01/06/2021 to 31/03/2023, will provide the Council sufficient time to garner a clearer indication of relevant requirements in the following 60 months, and provide the Council with further information on the impact of Covid-19 on new builds and working from home policies at existing sites. Overall, significant capacity within the existing contract for advertised value previously, combined with short-term requirements and uncertainty of long-term requirements, mean a retender at this time would not deliver the best value for money, not guarantee fair and open competition, and thus would not be in the public interest.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The supply, delivery and installation of general office furniture and associated products and services, both small scale and large furniture orders and installations, including to additional sites within Derby City, and to supply or appoint/recommend and work with specialist furniture suppliers for ad-hoc or one-off orders, for example specialist chairs that meet the requirements of an employee with reasonable adjustments, storage solutions for specialist items. Additional information: The contract value has been based on estimated demand across the duration of the extension and previous five years

### Procurement Information

The modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract: the supplies remain as those covered by the original contract, with no additional value to attribute to the modification.
