## Summary

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) is in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "UKRI-4609 Furniture (Design, Supply, Install and Recycle) Framework." This initiative, valued at £5,000,000 exclusive of VAT, aims to establish a multi-supplier framework for the design, supply, installation, and recycling of furniture. Spanning across a principal duration of two years with potential for two additional optional extensions of one year each, the framework mainly covers services at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) in Oxfordshire, with additional services required at the STFC Chilbolton Observatory in Hampshire and The Coseners House in Oxfordshire. The procurement process is currently at the planning stage, with a prospective completion date for the tender notice set for 28th April 2025.

This procurement presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in furniture design, supply, and installation, particularly those with capabilities in recycling. The multi-supplier framework will operate on a ranking basis, providing a structured pathway for suppliers to secure work allocation based on their standing. The scope of the framework, encompassing installation and recycling aspects, caters to companies equipped with comprehensive services in these areas. As the UKRI seeks active engagement with suppliers for seamless integration into their locations, this tender is apt for established furniture companies with a strategic focus on institutional contracts and a robust presence in the UK market.
