This procurement falls within the works category and aims to provide artificial environmental control to mitigate temperature fluctuations and high humidity within the vessel's lower deck. The tender period concludes on 31st March 2017, with the contract scheduled to commence on 17th April 2017 and run until 30th June 2017. Interested parties are encouraged to review the attached tender documents for detailed project specifications and site visit arrangements. This tender presents a promising opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in installation services, particularly those experienced in working with sensitive historical environments. Companies with expertise in engineering, construction services, and maintenance will be well-positioned to compete, as the project requires adherence to both technical specifications and the preservation of the ship's historic integrity. Engaging with this tender could contribute to business growth and enhance reputations within the public contract procurement sector. ## Notice NMRN has identified the need to introduce artificial environmental control within the lower deck of the historic vessel HMS M.33. Due to her construction, the ship suffers from large fluctuations in temperature and very high humidity. Artificial control to introduce stable conditions is necessary for the long-term preservation of the vessel. Contractors are invited to present a specification for a system to achieve stable conditions within the vessel's lower deck, with costed installation schedule, respecting the historic fabric of the ship. A full description of the brief is attached with details of how to arrange a site visit. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7f719eb6-8bd9-46f9-b9c9-00b2b4d149de | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 1 Mar 2017 | | Submission deadline | 31 Mar 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 16 Apr 2017 - 30 Jun 2017 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE NATIONAL MUSEUM OF THE ROYAL NAVY | | Locality | PORTSMOUTH | | Post town | Portsmouth | | Postcode | PO1 3NH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ3 Hampshire and Isle of Wight | | ITL 3 | TLJ31 Portsmouth | | Local authority | Portsmouth | | Electoral ward | Charles Dickens | | Westminster constituency | Portsmouth South | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 50 - Repair and maintenance services - 51 - Installation services (except software) - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ### Codes - 50000000 - Repair and maintenance services - 51000000 - Installation services (except software) - 71000000 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services ## Release History - 1 Mar 2017 at 15:47 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7f719eb6-8bd9-46f9-b9c9-00b2b4d149de - 1 Mar 2017 at 15:43 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7f719eb6-8bd9-46f9-b9c9-00b2b4d149de ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7f719eb6-8bd9-46f9-b9c9-00b2b4d149de 1st March 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/5eedf0b2-3223-4af9-bb74-b8aaf4b71165 Tender brief_HMS M.33 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/76d66e63-4186-4b46-9dbb-df70c85becec ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
