Summary of the contracting process

The BFI (British Film Institute) has recently awarded a contract for the BFI IMAX Curtain Wall Glazing Improvements, a project categorized under glazing work and painting and glazing work in the construction industry. This tender was conducted through an open procurement method, which allowed wider participation. The project aims to mitigate risks associated with curtain wall glazing failures at the BFI IMAX, located in London, with a contract period set from 2nd September 2019 to 31st March 2020. Key dates include the end of the tender period on 3rd June 2019 and an award announcement made on 16th September 2019.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in architectural design and glazing systems, especially those capable of providing innovative solutions to enhance safety without compromising aesthetic elements. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in construction and engineering would find this contract particularly relevant, as the BFI is seeking an experienced firm to take on both design and installation responsibilities. The project also aligns with maintenance needs and may encourage companies to propose adaptable systems integrating safety and visibility, key aspects for the BFI's ongoing operations and public appeal.

Notice Title

BFI IMAX Curtain Wall Glazing Improvements - AWARD

Notice Description

The BFI IMAX is continuing to encounter infrequent curtain wall glazing failures and so are unable to rule out future failures, either down to malicious or accidental damage or nickel sulphide inclusions. Following an internal risk assessment process this has resulted in a decision to mitigate any risk of future failures. We are looking to work with a company who can design and install a system which they can demonstrate will either contain/restrain any glass fragments from falling or arrest their fall and capture them before they reach the public walkway. The proposal should encompass design and installation including acceptance of the Design responsibilities and the role of Principle Designer with regard to CDM regulations. We believe there is also maintenance required on the curtain wall glazing system itself and a number of the perishable elements of the fixings will need to be replaced. We are looking for a solution which allows the risk to be mitigated whilst not affecting the visibility of the advertising wrap which is located behind the curtain wall glazing and a very important source of income to support the BFI's charitable activities. It also contributes to the overall look of the IMAX building structure. Please note: As part of this tender there is a mandatory bidders open day/site visit which will take place on the afternoon on Wednesday 5th June 2019. Further details of this are included in the documentation published alongside this tender.
