Summary of the contracting process

The Victoria and Albert Museum in London has initiated a procurement process for the supply of museum standard and bespoke frames, which is at the tender stage. Although originally set up as a non-exclusive framework agreement, this procurement effort has been paused and subsequently cancelled due to COVID-19. The museum aimed to establish a relationship with companies experienced in providing framing solutions tailored to museum standards. The anticipated duration for the agreement was set for at least three years, with an option for one additional year. Related lots include an expected delivery quantity of around 100 to 200 standard frames annually, with bespoke frames being supplied as needed for specific exhibits.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in framing services and those with experience in museum-grade products. Competitors should have a proven track record in fulfilling high-quality, specialised orders that meet stringent museum standards. As the V&A prepares to publish a new advert soon, businesses in the framing and museum exhibition sectors stand to benefit from seeking further engagement in this procurement process.
