This initiative aims to assess the financial value of the collection comprehensively, catering to accounting standards and insurance requirements. The procurement, identified as PURCON 5063 SCVA Valuation, follows an open procedure and is set in the region of UKH15, United Kingdom. The project has completed its tender stage and the contract award has been successfully made to Coram James Limited, with activities scheduled between 1st March and 31st July 2026. The legal framework guiding the procurement includes compliance with UK legislation 2023/54, ensuring adherence to public sector regulations. This tender opens avenues for business expansion through specialised services in financial auditing, specifically targeting museum asset valuation. With a budgeted contract amount of £138,000, SMEs like Coram James Limited can leverage their expertise in auditing services to deliver value. Enterprises with proficiency in financial audits and insurance assessments, particularly those experienced in handling art collections, are well-suited for similar opportunities. The project not only supports growth for auditing firms but also establishes a collaborative framework where effective coordination with public institutions like the University of East Anglia is essential for successful delivery. ## Notice The University of East Anglia (UEA) is seeking to understand the current financial value of the Sainsbury Centre (SCVA) collection in its entirety. The collection has not been comprehensively valued since 2004, and it is believed that an increasing discrepancy has emerged between the actual market value of the assets and the values presented in the University's annual financial statements. A new valuation is required to support compliance with relevant accounting standards, meet the needs of the University's financial auditors, and ensure appropriate insurance coverage. ### Planning Information questionnaire published linked to this notice.
