## Summary

The Board of Trustees of the Victoria and Albert Museum is currently inviting tenders for the procurement of Furniture, Fittings, and Equipment (FF&E) for their V&A East Storehouse project, located in Stratford, East London.

The project entails supplying items for phases 1 and 2 of the FF&E packages, which include both Back of House and Front of House spaces.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in furniture and equipment supply, design, and installation within the cultural sector.

It is located at Here East in Stratford, East London. The V&A wishes to procure FF&E for Phases 1 and 2 of their FF&E packages which include a number of Back of House and Front of House spaces. Spatial planning and FF&E specification have already been completed by the Project Architects, so this tender is for supply only, though consultation may be necessary if alternatives are required.
