Description

FXPlus is looking for a supplier of furniture for its student accommodation at the Penryn Campus. Please see Appendix 1 for details of the required furniture items, the quantities and required delivery dates. The spreadsheet includes images of the required products and we would look for furniture that is the same, or as similar as possible. Uniformity of the furniture throughout the campus accommodation is an important aspect of the requirement. Proposals will only be considered from Suppliers who are able to offer all products as listed in the spreadsheet in Appendix 1.

The purpose of this specification is to ensure that our suppliers and products align with our department purpose to provide a reliable source of quality furniture to guests staying in our residences during both summer and term-time periods.

This specification includes the specific services of the supply of all soft furnishings required to fit the needs of the accommodation departments on Penryn Campus (a selection of products and categories included in Appendix 1), in accordance with the quality expectations and delivery times as set out below.

There are two departments with the accommodation team that will have separate budgets/purchase orders. Successful suppliers will be expected to invoice each respective department account separately.
