Mattresses Tenders and Contracts

A mattresses tender covers the supply, lease or replacement of mattresses, mattress protectors and pressure-relief mattresses. Buyers may issue it alongside beds, bedding or a wider furniture and equipment contract.

Stotles brings together mattresses tenders and contracts from 100+ portals into one search, so you do not have to check each portal separately, and you can set alerts for new opportunities across the UK and Ireland.

If you want to search the government portals directly, Find a Tender carries higher-value contracts across the UK and Contracts Finder carries lower-value contracts in England. Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales and eTendersNI cover Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, Ireland's eTenders covers Irish public bodies, and many councils, NHS bodies and housing associations publish on their own e-tendering portals such as ProContract. Mattresses are often bought inside wider contracts for beds, community equipment or temporary accommodation furniture, and NHS buyers call off NHS Supply Chain frameworks.

Mattress tenders are scored on product specification, pressure care performance, fire safety, decontamination and servicing, and whole-life cost. Hospital contracts often include rental and servicing, so support capability matters.

Mattresses must meet the furniture fire safety regulations and BS 7177 for contract use, and medical mattresses must meet medical device rules. Tenders usually set minimum insurance cover, check financial standing and ask for evidence of similar supply contracts at selection stage. Under the Procurement Act 2023, suppliers can be excluded for certain criminal convictions, insolvency or failure to pay tax.

Mattresses are often bought inside wider contracts for beds, community equipment or temporary accommodation furniture, split into lots. NHS buying frequently runs as call-offs from framework agreements.

NHS trusts and hospitals buy mattresses for wards and community equipment services, and councils and housing associations buy them for temporary and supported housing. The Ministry of Defence buys mattresses through its logistics supply contracts.

Read equipment replacement plans, asset registers, framework renewal dates and expiry dates for existing supply contracts, which show mattresses work coming due ahead of a notice. On Stotles you can track those signals and the buyers behind them, then follow a notice from pre-tender through to award.
