They are published award values, not payments.

Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

The framework will be divided into two lots: •Lot 1 – Postcards •Lot 2 – Prints The printed products produced under this framework will be sold across IWM’s five physical museum branches, sold through IWM’s online shop, and supplied to trade customers as part of IWM’s wholesale offer. Products include postcards and prints.
