II.1.4)Short description of the contract or purchase(s)
Clackmannanshire Council operates a turn around of approximately 250 (mix of 2, 3 and occasionally 4 bedroom) properties to let within its stock for allocation to homeless persons. New tenants often find it difficult to settle into their tenancy if they have no means of furnishing it. Lack of furniture is known to be one of the main reasons that tenancies fail. The authority therefore has a commitment to ensure that homeless households are assisted to settle into their new tenancies successfully to avoid the risk of tenancy failure.
Clackmannanshire Council is seeking to enter into contract in order to purchase both new and second hand furniture in order to furnish its stock of temporary accommodation.
The tender is in two parts.
1. A contract to supply, deliver and install re-use/recycled furniture.
2. A contract to supply, deliver and install new furniture.
Providers will be able to submit completed tender documentation for one or both elements of the tender.
Estimated packages.
Fully furnished packages 20 per year.
Re-stock of properties 170 per year.
