UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Science Museum Group is seeking design and installation works for a dehumidification system serving two stores—L&A and Radiation Stores—in one of the hangars at its Science + Innovation Park in Wroughton. The requirement covers the HVAC, ventilation and air-conditioning installation needed to control humidity in these storage spaces. This is a works contract, rather than a supply-only purchase, and is intended to provide a complete designed and installed solution at the Wroughton site.

The buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The enquiry deadline was 6 October 2026 at 17:00, and the submission deadline was 14 October 2026 at 16:00. The contract period was set to run from 15 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The estimated value is £500,000 excluding VAT (£600,000 including VAT). The procurement is one lot. The award basis is described by reference to the tender documents, so the specific evaluation criteria are not set out in the published summary data.

This opportunity is suited to contractors able to design and install dehumidification and associated HVAC, ventilation and air-conditioning systems for specialist storage spaces. Suppliers will need the technical capability to deliver an integrated installation across two stores within a hangar, and the capacity to complete the works within the contract period. The requirement may suit firms with relevant experience in humidity control and environmental systems for storage facilities. The published requirement identifies no specific accreditation or minimum experience threshold, so businesses should assess the tender documents for detailed technical and evaluation requirements.
