under the North Carolina General Statutes (N.C.G.S) § 160A-610, GoTriangle is seeking to establish a
contract for the provision of Commercial Grade Office Furniture Supply, Delivery, Installation, and
Related Services. Whether GoTriangle enters into a contract and the manner in which any contract

GoTriangle will consider proposals that include new furniture, or pre-owned furniture, or a
combination of both, provided that all proposed products comply with the requirements and
performance standards set forth in this Scope of Work. The use of new, or pre-owned, or mixed

operational, aesthetic, and performance requirements.

all work is completed in accordance with the requirements of the Contract, applicable federal,
state, and local laws, regulations, codes, manufacturer recommendations, industry best
practices, and the agreed-upon project schedule.
This procurement is intended to address GoTriangle's immediate office furniture requirements. In
addition, GoTriangle intends to establish a contract that may be used for future purchases of
commercial-grade office furniture and related services throughout the term of the Contract. Any
future purchases shall be made solely at GoTriangle's discretion, based on organizational needs,
available funding, and the Contractor's continued satisfactory performance. Nothing in this
solicitation shall be construed as a guarantee of future work or a minimum purchase commitment.
