Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery Trust in Carlisle is procuring digital installation design and delivery services for an immersive digital space in a new Active Gallery, as part of Project Tullie Phase 3: Breaking Down Barriers. The requirement is for a 360-degree Immersive Art experience based on six paintings from the museum’s fine art collection. Each painting is to be brought to life through digital projection and interpretation, potentially using animation, cinemagraphs, soundscapes and interactive elements. The appointed individual or organisation will plan the installation and take the concept through to full delivery, covering both software and hardware design. This is a museum-exhibition service for delivery at Tullie House in Carlisle, England.

The procurement has reached tender: the Trust invited offers through a limited procedure using a competitive quotation below the public procurement threshold. The quotation deadline set by the buyer is 29 October 2026 at 10:00 UTC. The contract is scheduled to run from 16 November 2026 to 31 May 2027. Its stated value is £14,000. The requirement is presented as a single scope rather than separate lots. The procurement is for services and is identified under CPV 92521100, museum-exhibition services. The published requirement focuses on delivering the specified immersive installation within the stated timeframe; the tender description sets out the creative and technical scope rather than separate scored evaluation criteria.

This opportunity suits an experienced digital installation designer, either an individual specialist or an organisation, with the creative and technical capability to turn fine-art interpretation into an immersive visitor experience. Relevant suppliers will need to combine software and hardware design, digital projection, audiovisual production and interactive installation skills. Experience developing animation, cinemagraphs, soundscapes or other digital interpretation for cultural, gallery or exhibition environments would be directly relevant. The work also requires the capacity to manage the project from initial planning through implementation and full delivery, coordinating the different technical and creative elements into one functioning installation. It is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, making it potentially relevant to specialist studios and independent practitioners as well as larger design teams.
