Summary of the contracting process

The Imperial War Museums (IWM) in London is seeking a contractor to manage updates to the existing First World War Gallery Trench. The tender focuses on the prop-making, installation, and minor build elements. The contract, using an open procedure, falls under the 'Library, archives, museums and other cultural services' category. Key dates include the tender closing on 30th August 2024 and the project running from 23rd September 2024 to 5th December 2024. These updates aim to enhance the trench's realism with new setworks, props, and AV projections without altering its location or footprint.

This tender presents a significant growth opportunity for businesses specialising in museum construction and exhibition services, particularly those experienced in preserving historical sites. The project caters well to organisations with expertise in detailed prop-making and AV installations. Although not specifically targeted at small and medium enterprises (SMEs), the opportunity is open to Very Small Enterprises (VCSEs), making it suitable for niche museum service providers looking to expand their portfolio by partnering with a reputable institution like the Imperial War Museums.
