## Summary

South Tyneside Borough Council bought furniture and associated services for delivery in South Tyneside. The requirement covered three areas: general office and home-working furniture, educational and library furniture, and ergonomic furniture. Office provision includes seating, desks, tables, screens, monitor arms and storage for settings such as receptions, conference and dining areas, as well as bespoke and home-working solutions. Educational furniture is for nursery, early years, primary, secondary, higher and further education settings, including libraries and dining areas. The ergonomic requirement covers chairs, desks and accessories intended to support health, comfort and productivity. Across these areas, the work includes supplying, delivering and installing the furniture; the ergonomic items must meet relevant UK and international standards.

The procurement is complete and the contracts are active. South Tyneside Borough Council made a direct award under the NEPO411 framework, using a selective, below-threshold route. LEVANT OFFICE INTERIORS LTD was selected for all three contracts: office and home-working furniture; educational and library furniture; and ergonomic furniture and associated services. Each contract is valued at £29,000 excluding VAT (£34,800 including VAT). Each was signed on 19 October 2026 and runs from 1 November 2026 to 31 August 2030. The published process description covers these three categories, although the structured lot information associates each award with the same lot reference. No separate evaluation criteria are stated in the process information.

For suppliers assessing this buyer’s future furniture requirements, this award shows demand for supply, delivery and installation across office, education and ergonomic settings, with associated services. A credible competitor would need a broad product range: office seating, desks, tables, screens, monitor arms and storage; furniture suitable for educational establishments and libraries; and ergonomic chairs, desks and accessories. The service capability matters alongside the products, including delivery and installation for varied environments and, for office furniture, home-working needs and bespoke solutions. Suppliers competing for ergonomic work would need to demonstrate compliance with relevant UK and international standards. This requirement was placed through the NEPO411 framework as a direct award, so framework participation and the ability to serve the Council’s needs through that route are commercially relevant.
