Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) procured specialist transport and installation services for artwork. The requirement covers the international transportation of artwork and its installation, making this a specialist logistics and art-handling service rather than general freight. The work is associated with the department’s London operations, with delivery at a London location. It is classified as a service, specifically transport services excluding waste transport. The buyer is DCMS, based at 100 Parliament Street, London. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations, indicating that suppliers of different organisational sizes and structures could participate in the procurement route.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender’s estimated value was £100,000, while the active award to Momart Limited was £300,000. The award was made on 24 July 2026. The awarded contract runs from 3 August 2026 to 2 August 2027. The tender submission deadline was 11 June 2026 at 12:00. Momart Limited, a London-based supplier, was selected to provide the services. The award relates to the requirement as a whole, with no separate lots identified. The procurement was evaluated through the framework call-off process.

This award is evidence of DCMS demand for specialist artwork logistics and installation delivered through a framework call-off. Competitors considering similar future requirements would need credible capability in the secure handling, international transportation and on-site installation of artwork. Relevant businesses are likely to be specialist art shippers, art logistics providers, exhibition transport companies and installation teams able to coordinate end-to-end movements and delivery work. The buyer’s stated suitability for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations indicates that smaller specialist firms may be relevant, whether bidding independently or contributing as a delivery partner. Experience that demonstrates careful artwork handling, dependable logistics coordination and installation delivery would be important when competing for this buyer’s requirement.
