This exhibition will be held at the museum's location in London, England, specifically at the postal code SW3 4HT. It will explore significant historical events around the Burma campaign and highlights the contributions of Indian and African soldiers. The tender is classified under the industry category of "Library, archives, museums and other cultural services" (CPV code 92500000). The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, following an open procedure, with a closing date for tender submissions set for 25th July 2025. The contract period will run from 11th August to 1st September 2025. This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for SMEs within the graphics industry, particularly those experienced in museum exhibitions or cultural services. The project requires expertise in creating various graphic elements such as text panels, wallpapers, fabric printing, and object labels. Given the project scope and the National Army Museum's profile as a prestigious cultural institution, businesses with capabilities in high-quality printing and installation services stand to benefit significantly. This opportunity is especially appealing to those who are adept at delivering creative solutions within tight deadlines and with specified budgets ranging from £12,000 to £15,000. ## Notice The National Army Museum wishes to appoint a suitable, experienced graphics contractor to manufacture, print and install graphics for the National Army Museum's temporary exhibition, 'Beyond Burma: Forgotten Armies' which opens to the public on 16th September 2025 and closes 16th April 2026. The exhibition space is 150sq metres. The exhibition will commemorate the eightieth anniversary of the end of the Burma campaign. It will cover the Retreat from Burma in 1942, the resurgence and transformation of the British and Indian armies in India during 1943, as well as the effective campaigns against the Imperial Japanese during 1944-1945. In particular, it will also highlight the role of the Indian soldiers who continued to serve across Southeast Asia long after the end of the Second World War. The Burma campaign is often called the 'Forgotten War' and the Fourteenth Army nicknamed the 'Forgotten Army'. However, the really forgotten aspect of the war are the large numbers of Indian and African soldiers who fought in Burma and the exhibition will explore their contribution. Graphic elements include main text panels, sub-text panels, large scale wallpapers, fabric printing, object labels and facsimilies of some works on paper. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/936bdf4d-0e3c-4639-bcd7-8ca73c67ee1f | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 14 Jul 2025 | | Submission deadline | 25 Jul 2025 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 10 Aug 2025 - 1 Sep 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £15,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NATIONAL ARMY MUSEUM | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW3 4HT | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI33 Kensington & Chelsea and Hammersmith & Fulham | | Local authority | Kensington and Chelsea | | Electoral ward | Royal Hospital | | Westminster constituency | Chelsea and Fulham | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 92500000 - Library, archives, museums and other cultural services ## Release History - 14 Jul 2025 at 14:14 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/936bdf4d-0e3c-4639-bcd7-8ca73c67ee1f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/936bdf4d-0e3c-4639-bcd7-8ca73c67ee1f 14th July 2025 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/a40418ef-66f4-4443-b7cd-66469eb6a8e9 Tender Brief - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/16c018bd-0335-4451-bbeb-4c76e31d1618 Annex A to Tender Brief - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/b32da8de-de56-4195-b2c1-79039b85001a Annex B to Tender Brief ## Notice URLs - http://www.nam.ac.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
