## Description

At the Riverside Group we are reviewing our arrangements for procuring residential furniture items and we would like to invite interested suppliers to take part in a market engagement exercise\. The majority of our furniture requirements are within our Care & Support space which supports customers with diverse needs\. We will need nationwide coverage - whether that is serviced by a single supplier or a number of smaller suppliers; the ability to deliver within tight timeframes; and ranges that reflect our different customer requirements\. Our furniture must be of good quality and able to withstand some rough treatment, whilst also providing a homely and welcoming aesthetic\. If you are a supplier that can meet some or all of those requirements, we would really appreciate you completing our market engagement questionnaire\. Additional information: This is a soft market testing exercise which is available to access free of charge on Riverside's In-Tend Portal\. Suppliers must register or login to gain access to the tender and to submit their bid\. Submissions must be via the In-Tend Portal also\. The link to access the portal is below: https://in-tendhost\.co\.uk/theriversidegroup Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No
