Published requirement description

The service to be primarily conducted under the Furniture and Furnishings Framework is the supply of furniture for communal living areas, bedrooms and office spaces. To include armchairs, mattresses, sofas, drawers, dining tables, wardrobes, tables and chairs. In addition, accessories and soft furnishings, typically purchased are kitchen accessories, bedding, curtains, blinds, wall art, towels, lamps and small electricals. This list is not exhaustive and is intended as a guide to the typical furniture required.

The furniture required can be broadly defined into a few categories; furniture suitable for long term tenancies such as sheltered accommodation and older person schemes, short term tenancies such as supported and student accommodation, along with office furniture. As the framework is also available to the wider public sector the providers must also be able to supply residential furniture suitable for use outside of the housing sector such as Govt departments, local authority, care and the NHS.

The framework is divided into 5 Lots:

•Lot 1 - Social/Supported Living

•Lot 2 - Sheltered Accommodation

•Lot 3 - Student Accommodation

•Lot 4 - Office Furniture

•Lot 5 - Multi Discipline

CPV: Carpets, mats and rugs · Domestic furniture · Floor coverings · Furniture · Furniture (incl. office furniture), furnishings, domestic appliances (excl. lighting) and cleaning products · Miscellaneous furniture and equipment · Office furniture

What it takes to win

How this buyer will score bids.

The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored · same split on all 5 lots

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Procurement Hub - Furniture & Furnishings Framework” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
