## Summary

BIP SOLUTIONS LIMITED is procuring a framework for museum consumables used in collection storage and the care and management of museum collections. The requirement supports two large Government-funded projects as well as the Museum’s ongoing collection-related work. It covers laboratory, optical and precision equipment and related consumable goods, rather than construction or consultancy services. Delivery is in London, United Kingdom. The framework is intended to involve several suppliers, giving conservation and museum-supply businesses a route to provide the materials and equipment needed for collection storage and management. The opportunity is classified under CPV 38000000 and is categorised as goods. It is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This procurement is complete and was awarded on 29 July 2026. Lots 1 and 2 were awarded; Lots 3, 4 and 5 were not awarded. Conservation Resources (UK) Ltd and Conservation By Design Limited were selected as suppliers for the awarded requirement. The awarded value is £4,400,000. The framework runs from 30 July 2026 to 4 June 2030. The process used a tender procedure, with the procurement method recorded as ‘Other - Not Specified’. The available information identifies the framework and its suppliers but does not provide separate values or award details for each awarded lot. The contract covers the supply of consumables for the Museum’s collection-storage and collection-management requirements.

This outcome shows established demand for specialist museum and conservation consumables supporting collection storage, major publicly funded projects and ongoing collection care. A credible future competitor would need reliable access to suitable conservation and storage materials, strong product knowledge, and the operational capacity to supply a museum at framework scale. The selected suppliers indicate that specialist conservation businesses, including SMEs, can meet the buyer’s requirements. Suppliers should be able to support several workstreams and maintain dependable fulfilment across a multi-supplier arrangement, while understanding the handling, preservation and management needs of museum collections. Experience supplying cultural institutions, museums, archives or comparable conservation environments would help demonstrate that capability when this requirement is next considered.
