Details
Imperial War Museums (IWM) is inviting Potential Providers to participate in the Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) stage for an Exhibitions Build Framework. The framework is intended to establish a panel of suitably experienced exhibition build contractors who can deliver high-quality, safe, reliable and cost-effective exhibition works across IWM’s estate. Potential Providers shortlisted following the PSQ stage will be invited to submit a full tender response. The framework will be divided into two Lots, based on the anticipated value and scale of individual projects:
- Projects valued at under £200,000 (Lot 1)
- Projects valued at over £200,000 (Lot 2)
Potential Providers may bid for one or both Lots, subject to demonstrating that they have the appropriate capacity, capability, technical expertise and experience to deliver the relevant services. Each lot will be evaluated and awarded separately. At this stage, IWM is undertaking the Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) stage only. Tender documents will be issued to shortlisted Potential Providers in accordance with the procurement timetable published alongside the PSQ document. IWM is advertising a three-year framework agreement, with the option to extend by a further one-year period. Please note that the advertised value of each Lot anticipates that IWM will choose to use the extension.

Before you bid on this tender
A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission. 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.
