## Summary

South Tyneside Borough Council procured residential furniture and related household goods for social care needs. The requirement covers supply, delivery and installation for care homes, social housing providers and council tenancies, including furniture for temporary accommodation. The expected range includes living solutions, white goods and kitchen appliances, and may include household items such as cooking utensils, cutlery and crockery. The work is in South Tyneside, in the North East of England. This is a furniture and domestic-appliance supply requirement, with associated delivery and installation services. The council used its NEPO411 framework for the procurement, which was a call-off for residential furniture rather than a standalone purchase open to all suppliers.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Abri Ltd; the contract is active and was signed on 22 October 2026. The contract value is £400,000 excluding VAT (£480,000 including VAT). Its period runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 August 2030. The council made a direct award under the NEPO411 framework, using a selective, below-threshold route; the call-off was not competitive. The award information identifies one supplier and one lot, covering the residential furniture requirement. The published information does not state separate evaluation criteria for this call-off. The award is for goods, with delivery and installation forming part of the described requirement.

For a future requirement of this kind, a credible supplier would need to offer a broad residential furnishing range and reliably coordinate supply, delivery and installation for social care settings, housing providers and council tenancies. The scope indicates that suppliers may also need to provide white goods, kitchen appliances and practical household items, rather than furniture alone. Capacity to meet urgent needs, including furnishing temporary accommodation, would be commercially relevant. The selected supplier was appointed through the NEPO411 framework, so suppliers seeking similar council work would need to be eligible to supply through that route. This award shows demand for a substantial, multi-year residential furniture package serving varied care and housing settings; relevant experience would include managing a comprehensive product offer and dependable fulfilment across those settings.
