    Brief

    This is a direct award furniture procurement to Kinnarps (UK) Limited. The award is based on a time-critical requirement to spend residual revenue budget before the end of the current academic financial year. The funding cannot be carried forward, making it essential to complete the purchase within the existing financial window. A competitive procurement process would introduce delays that risk non-delivery within the required timeframe, potentially resulting in budget loss and operational disruption. The direct appointment approach ensures delivery meets the urgent deadline while utilizing allocated funds efficiently.
