Summary of the contracting process

Blackburn With Darwen Borough Council has successfully awarded a contract for the provision of museum display cases under the project titled "Award of Contract for Museum Display Cases." This contract falls under the industry category of library, archives, museums, and other cultural services, and has a total value of £141,180. The procurement process used was a single tender action (below threshold), and the contract period spans from 3rd February 2025 to 31st May 2025. The award was published on 6th February 2025, with an initial tender end date of 27th December 2024. The delivery location is specified to be in Blackburn, with a postal code of BB1 7DY.

This tender represents a significant business growth opportunity, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as demonstrated by the successful bid of Armour Systems Ltd, a company based in Milton Keynes. Companies specialising in the manufacturing and supply of museum or cultural display cases, particularly those who can operate within tight budget constraints and specific delivery timelines, would be well-suited to compete for similar contracts. With clear procurement timelines and a focus on cultural services, such tenders can provide a reliable revenue stream and enhance a firm's portfolio within the public sector.
