## Summary

The British Film Institute (BFI) is seeking proposals for a refrigerated van intended for the cooled transport of motion picture films and heritage collection items. The procurement process is currently at the Tender stage, having been published on 22nd June 2018, with the deadline for submissions set for 13th July 2018. This open procurement method, classified under motor vehicles for transporting goods, is based in London with delivery addresses covering various locations, including overseas territories and the rest of the United Kingdom. The contract is expected to commence on 27th July 2018 and last until 26th July 2021.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in vehicle supply or modifications, particularly those that can provide temperature-controlled transport solutions. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that focus on motor vehicle sales, conversions, or maintenance services would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, especially considering the BFI's emphasis on reliable and cost-effective service delivery. Engaging with this tender could help such businesses expand their portfolio and establish a relationship with a prominent public institution.

## Notice

The BFI requires a van for the cooled transport of motion picture film and other heritage collection items. The load bay should benefit from moderate cooling (c. 16c). The ability of the van to deliver reliable and very cost effective service is crucial. The load space typically will be temperature controlled to 16oC in all weathers. The ability of the system to deliver a lower temperature, down to 5oC, is also required. * PLEASE NOTE - THIS TENDER HAS NOW BEEN WITHDRAWN * Additional information: To take part in this tender, please visit our website, at the address shown above, where you will need to register, if you haven't already, and express an interest in this opportunity to access the relevant documents.
