## Summary

Askham Bryan College procured the supply, delivery and installation of durable, fit-for-purpose furniture for its Science Block. The furniture is intended to support teaching, learning and associated activities in the facility. This is a goods requirement covering furniture rather than building work or teaching services. The buyer is Askham Bryan College, based in York. The contract concerns furniture for the college’s Science Block; the published delivery location is identified only as the United Kingdom, so no more specific delivery place can be stated.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Askham Bryan College awarded the single lot to Richardson Business Equipment, and the contract was signed on 29 September 2026. The contract runs from 29 September to 30 December 2026. Its value is £6,284.72 excluding VAT, or £7,541.66 including VAT. The college used a direct award without competition under a below-threshold procedure. The published procurement information gives no separate evaluation criteria; the award is therefore reported as the outcome of that direct process, rather than a competitive assessment against stated criteria.

For suppliers of educational and institutional furniture, this award demonstrates demand at Askham Bryan College for a combined supply, delivery and installation service for a teaching facility. A credible competitor for similar work would need to provide durable, fit-for-purpose furniture suited to teaching and learning, and manage delivery and installation as part of the offer. The requirement was handled as a small, single-lot purchase through a direct award without competition, rather than an open contest. Richardson Business Equipment, a small and medium-sized enterprise, was selected. Suppliers with the capacity to fulfil a focused furniture package and coordinate its installation in a college science block are the closest commercial peers for this buyer’s requirement.

## Notice
