## Summary

The Victoria and Albert Museum, located in Kensington, London, is currently going through the planning stage of a tender for "Data Protection Officer Services." As part of its compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the museum is evaluating options for outsourcing its Data Protection Officer function. The deadline for expressions of interest is set for 16th February 2018, with the potential contract commencing on 1st May 2018 and lasting until 30th April 2021. The estimated value of the contract is between £25,000 and £50,000, and it falls under the industry category of computer-related management services.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in data management and computer-related professional services. Businesses offering outsourced Data Protection Officer services are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, as the museum is specifically seeking to establish an arrangement related to its ongoing data protection audit and GDPR implementation. Interested parties should consider contacting the museum's procurement office to discuss potential arrangements and pricing.

## Notice

The V&A is quite far along in its analysis of the consequences of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). An audit is underway and appropriate structures, policies and procedures will be in place by the May 2018 deadline. The V&A is a public sector body (or hybrid body) for the purposes of the GDPR and we are therefore required to have a Data Protection Officer (DPO). We are considering our options and one option is to outsource our DPO function to an external supplier. If you offer this sort of outsourced DPO service could you please email us at procurement@vam.ac.uk. Please include details of what sort of arrangement you could put in place for the V&A and give some indication of cost. Please note that since we are currently in the midst of a detailed data protection audit and GDPR implementation process we do not need advice or support on GDPR compliance. Please note this is not a tender exercise, but a call to establish interest. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
