Notice Information

Notice Title

Mixed Media Conservation T13

Notice Description

The National Army Museum (NAM) wishes to appoint a conservation company or individual conservator ('the conservator') to conserve 53 objects in preparation for their display in the museum from Spring 2017. Tender submissions are requested from suitably qualified and experienced contractors. It is beneficial, though not essential, for the conservator to hold accredited status (PACR - Professional Accreditation of Conservator-Restorers). Of the 53 objects, all have had recent condition assessments with treatment recommendations and time estimates. This contract will involve undertaking the conservation of the objects (following discussion and approval of all treatments by the NAM); full documentation, including written reports and photographs, relating to the treatment of each object (sent to the NAM on completion of the project); packing in existing boxes/crates provided by the NAM for return transport. This contract is for approx. 579 hours work and due to space constraints is to be carried out off site by the conservator. It is anticipated that the work would start by October 2016. The NAM asks that all work be completed by order of gallery installation as specified by the deadlines. We will provide existing condition assessments, images and full descriptions of the objects. As this contract is for a fixed number of hours, tenders may be made without viewing the objects beforehand. The deadline for submission of tender applications is Friday 30 September at 1600hrs.
