## Summary

The National Archives has completed the procurement process for the supply of self-supporting walls for the display of artworks in their exhibition gallery. The procurement, categorised under 'goods', was conducted through a direct method without competition, as it fell below the threshold. The contract, valued at £33,870 gross (£28,225 net), was awarded to Panelock Display Systems Limited on 20th March 2025 and is expected to run from 21st March 2025 to 25th April 2025. These display units will be delivered to multiple regions across the United Kingdom, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West.
