Staffordshire County Council is looking for suppliers to provide office, educational, and library furniture including design, delivery, and installation services.

What the buyer wants

• Supply, deliver and install office furniture (desks, chairs, storage, screens) to approximately 1,800 delivery points across the council and its customers • Supply, deliver and install educational furniture and equipment (classroom furniture, dining room furniture, sports equipment, playground equipment) to schools and academies on an ad hoc basis • Supply, deliver and install library furniture with full design service, including library re-fit management, innovative design solutions, signage advice, after-sales support and training

Lots

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

This is a £9 million framework contract requiring significant design, project management, and installation capacity across three furniture categories simultaneously. Most sole traders or very small businesses (under 20 staff) will struggle with the scale, geographic spread, and concurrent demand unless they partner with larger suppliers or specialists.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
