Summary of the contracting process

Monmouthshire County Council has completed the procurement process for the Monmouth Shire Hall Exhibition Works Project, aiming to create an interactive visitor experience through various exhibits at the historic Shire Hall in Usk, United Kingdom. This project falls under the industry's museum construction and preservation services category and is part of a larger heritage strategy. The procurement method used was open competition, which operates below the threshold. The contract, valued at £745,000, was awarded on 12th March 2026, and runs from 13th March 2026 to 13th March 2027, with an option for a twelve-month extension if required. The HUB Ltd was contracted as the supplier, showcasing their capability in museum-related construction and services.

This project provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in museum exhibits, heritage site preservation, and cultural services to enhance their portfolio and expand their market reach. The open procurement method and focus on design, fit-out, and building coordination invite SMEs particularly suited to this type of cultural development work. Companies involved in interactive exhibit development and those with expertise in building works will find additional business opportunities during the possible extension period dedicated to site maintenance and remediation works. The project aligns with Welsh devolved regulations, encouraging local businesses to participate and expand their operations regionally.
