## Summary

The British Library Board commissioned consultancy and digital services to develop a high-level web strategy covering its web estate and a detailed content strategy for the bl.uk website. The work brings together website design, marketing and business and management consultancy, with the aim of setting direction for the Library’s web presence and content. The contract forms part of the British Library’s future web programme. The procurement is for the Board, a central government public authority, and delivery is stated as taking place in the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The British Library used a below-threshold limited competition for a single lot. NUMIKO LIMITED was selected and the contract was signed on 2 September 2026. The award is active, and the contract runs from 3 September 2026 to 29 July 2027. Its stated value is £97,041 excluding VAT (£116,449.20 including VAT). The scope combines web strategy development for the Library’s estate with a detailed content strategy for bl.uk. The recorded service classifications cover website design, marketing and business and management consultancy; no separate scoring criteria are recorded.

This award shows demand from the British Library for strategic advice that connects a broad web estate with practical content planning for its main website. A credible competitor for similar work would need to combine digital strategy and website expertise with strong content strategy and marketing capability, and be able to advise at an organisational level rather than deliver isolated web design. The selected supplier, NUMIKO LIMITED, is recorded as an SME, indicating that a smaller consultancy was able to win this single-lot assignment. Suppliers with evidence of shaping web strategy and translating it into a detailed website content approach would be well placed to compete when this specific requirement returns to market.
