1) Details of the contractors and suppliers that will be used to
provide furniture for the Council's new headquarters

The Council intends to use the Government Procurement Agencies
Framework Agreement for furniture (ref RM440/L1). The framework contains
the following manufacturers/suppliers;

Flexiform
Herman Miller
Kinnarps
Senator
Triumph

A 'mini-competition' will be held between these suppliers. This is due
to commence in February with the successful contractor being awarded the
contract in late Feb early March

2) A breakdown of how the £500,000 furniture budget will be spent
by supplier/contractor

This budget is for all of the Fixtures and Fittings and not solely for

The breakdown of this figure will be available on completion of all of
the Fixtures and Fittings Tender exercises.

Dear Wyre Forest District Council,

Under the Freedom of Information Act, can you please provide me
with:

1) Details of the contractors and suppliers that will be used to

I understand that under the Act, I should be entitled to a
response
within 20 working days of your receipt of this email.

Some parts of this request may be easier to answer than others.
Should this prove to be the case, I would ask that you release
available data as soon as possible - rather than hold up the
entire
request.

I would prefer to receive this information electronically. If the
decision is made to withhold some of this data using exemptions
within the Act, please inform me of that fact and cite the
exemptions used.

If you need any clarification then please contact me at the via
email. Under your section 16 duty to provide advice and
assistance.
I would expect you to contact me if you find this request
unmanageable in any way.

I would be grateful if you could confirm that you have received
this request, and I look forward to hearing from you in the near
future.

Yours faithfully,

Joshua Kay
