## Summary

The University of Essex, in partnership with Dukefield Procurement Limited, has established a framework agreement for the provision of flooring supplies and services across the UK, detailed under tender CA16050. The aim is to serve various public sector bodies, including government departments, NHS bodies, and educational institutions. The framework, let in two lots, covers a comprehensive range of flooring supplies including carpets, wood flooring, and sports sprung flooring. The procurement process has followed an open procedure, culminating in the contract being awarded on 1st October 2025. The framework runs from 1st November 2025 to 31st October 2029, catering to the entire UK region.

This framework offers substantial opportunities for businesses within the flooring sector, particularly those that can provide a wide array of services, from supplying contract-grade carpets to floor maintenance services. The open procedure ensures a competitive environment, enabling suppliers like Floorteq Ltd and John L Lord & Son (Rizistal) Limited to secure significant contracts. The framework's structure allows for reopening of competition, providing ongoing opportunities for qualified suppliers to participate. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to engage, potentially benefiting from the framework’s extensive reach across the UK public sector, promising considerable business growth and expansion potential.
