Summary of the contracting process

Glasgow Life (Culture & Sport Glasgow) intends to appoint a multidisciplinary Museum Design and Delivery Team to support the redevelopment of the People’s Palace and Winter Garden on Glasgow Green in Glasgow. This is a museum design and project delivery services commission, covering the work needed to help redevelop these cultural facilities. The buyer is a local public-sector organisation and central purchasing body responsible for culture and sport services in Glasgow. The planned service is classified under architectural, engineering and planning services (CPV 71200000), with museum services as the primary classification (CPV 92521100). The work is described as a single multidisciplinary service package for the redevelopment project.

This procurement is at the planning stage: Glasgow Life has stated an intention to procure the service, but has not yet issued an invitation to tender. The buyer expects a further notice to be published on 15 September 2026. The planned approach is a public procurement for services covered by the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement, under the applicable European public procurement legal basis. The procurement is arranged as one planned lot for the Museum Design and Delivery Team. The contracting process is intended to support the redevelopment of the People’s Palace and Winter Garden in Glasgow, and the current notice is for information and early awareness rather than for submitting a bid.

This will suit established multidisciplinary teams able to combine museum design with the practical delivery of a complex cultural redevelopment. Relevant suppliers are likely to include firms with experience in museum, heritage, exhibition or visitor-attraction projects, alongside architectural, engineering, planning and project-management capability. Businesses preparing for the later procurement should consider how they would bring these disciplines together into one coordinated team and demonstrate successful delivery of comparable public-facing cultural projects. Experience of working with public-sector clients and managing design through to delivery would be relevant to the requirement. Specialist museum and heritage consultants may also find a role within a wider lead team or delivery partnership.
