Summary of the contracting process

The Corporate Officer of the House of Commons and the Corporate Officer of the House of Lords are jointly procuring Heritage Collections Storage Services. This procurement falls under the services category and involves leasing 3,300 square metres of floor space within a secure, climate-controlled facility located within 2 hours travel of Westminster. The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with the deadline for submissions on 5th July 2024. The project mandates the storage space to accommodate heritage objects, offer dedicated workspaces for Parliamentary staff, and include ancillary facilities for conservation work. The total contract value is estimated at £25 million, for an initial term of 5 years, extendable up to 5 additional years in 1-year increments. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the award process will commence shortly after the tender closing date.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specializing in storage and warehousing services, particularly those with experience in managing climate-controlled environments for heritage objects. Companies providing additional services such as secure transport and regular porterage will also find this tender appealing. The requirements for high floor loading capacity and ground floor slab storage for certain collections suggest that firms with robust infrastructure capabilities will be well-suited to compete. This opportunity can help storage service providers expand their portfolio and establish long-term contracts with a prestigious client, potentially leading to enhanced business credibility and future growth prospects.

Notice Title

Heritage Collections Storage Services

Notice Description

The Authority was looking to lease 3,300 square metres of non-shared floor space, within a secure, object storage facility. This was to be for an initial term of 5 years with the optional ability to extend for a period of up to 5 years in 1-year extensions.<br/><br/>The facility should be located within 2 hours travel via public transport of Westminster and allow Parliamentary staff to work within the dedicated spaces. The facility must have been fit for the purpose of storing heritage objects within climate-controlled spaces and have an ancillary space for use as a conservation studio. It needed to provide industry-standard, object storage systems (at 3.5m high) with good floor loading (at 5kN/m2 or above) to enable the efficient storage of different object media. This was likely to necessitate storage on ground floor slab for Architectural Fabric Collection (AFC) objects due to the requirement to move objects via forklift.
