Details

The BFI National Archive has used a bespoke software to track activity on collections items since 2011. This system has reached end-of-life and is no longer fit for purpose. The BFI National Archive needs a software which enables us to request and track interactions or activities carried out on collections items, and report on this. It will be for internal staff use only and process no financial data. This software is critical to enabling the Archive to provide key services, like the Research Viewing Service, archive bookings for FIAF members, donor access and restoration projects.

Context for bidders

We hold 3 notices from British Film Institute, going back to September 2026 — 2 of them still open. There are 198 open IT & Telecom tenders in United Kingdom. This one closes in 26 days.

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this it & telecom opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
