Summary of the contracting process

The National Maritime Museum, a central government public authority located in London, has recently completed the procurement process for the "Cape Farewell: Our Life is Here" exhibition. This tender falls under the services category, specifically focusing on museum-exhibition services. The procurement employed a limited competition method, below threshold, and reached the award stage. The relevant contract was signed on 19th November 2025, with the performance period spanning from 20th November 2025 to 8th December 2025. The project took place in London, aligning with the museum's geographical focus in the UK's South East region.

This tender represents a notable opportunity for businesses specialising in exhibition services, particularly those with experience in managing large-scale projects. "Full Scale Production Ltd," a large company, successfully secured this contract, highlighting the potential for sizable enterprises to engage with government projects of this nature. Organisations with expertise in delivering engaging museum installations and who can meet stringent governmental standards would be well-positioned to compete in similar tenders. The completion of this project emphasises the importance of readiness to respond to specialised procurement methods and deadlines in the public sector.
