NEPO411 Supply of Furniture

Description

The Association of North East Councils Limited trading as the North East Procurement Organisation (NEPO) is seeking tenders for the Framework for the Supply of Furniture. This Framework will cover Office and Educational Furniture and Residential and Domestic Furniture. This Furniture is to be supplied to a variety of locations including Civic Buildings, Education Establishments and Social Housing. Additional information: Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, NEPO believes that the first condition set out in Regulation 72(1)(c) Public Contracts Regulations 2015 has been fulfilled in respect of the framework agreement. NEPO have taken the decision to extend the existing framework agreements that were due for reprocurement for a period of six (6 months). This is to enable NEPO resource to be diverted to procuring urgent requirements to deal with COVID-19 consequences and to relieve pressure on the supply chain while short staffed, to enable businesses to continue to deliver services and goods to customers. NEPO intends to deliver replacement framework agreements as quickly as possible after the initial COVID-19 impact.
