This opportunity falls under the cultural services industry category (CPV code: 92500000) and is in the tender stage of the procurement process. The tender was published on 26th July 2021 and will close on 8th August 2021. The project involves recladding and redecorating a section of the museum that includes the removal of a surplus café space, with related works commencing on 13th August 2021 and scheduled for completion by 14th September 2021. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in construction, renovation, and cladding, particularly those with experience in working within heritage sites. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, given the suitability designation of this project. Companies well-versed in handling asbestos materials and upgrading museum facilities will find themselves in a strong position to compete for this contract, which aims to enhance the museum's aesthetic appeal while modernising its infrastructure. ## Notice The Royal Air Force Museum at London (NW9 5LL) consists of several buildings, ranging in age, building services and condition. The largest building is a combination of multiple previously sperate buildings connected by an infill building. The infill joins Hangars 3 & 4 with Hangar 5 and provides a transition for the floor levels. The infill space is framed by a fire curtain and includes access to a separate male and female toilet block, accessible toilet, and a services cupboard. The infill section has not been updated in any significant fashion since its installation and several service conduits have since been passed through the space. The site is known to contain asbestos material in several areas and the top panel of the infill is known to contain asbestos material. The Museum now wishes to dress the space, recladding the section to provide a flush and sensitive framing to the nearby Lancaster. The Museum has procured a Stage 2 design and now seeks a contractor who is able to complete the design and undertake the necessary work to reclad and decorate the space. In addition, the 'Wessex cafe' located to the side of the infill section is surplus to requirements and is to be removed, with its services carefully stripped back and reset in order to service future 'pop up' catering and event activities. The cafe consists of a freestanding servery counter and back counter, with small power run through the cabinets and water services for the coffee machines. All loose equipment will be removed by the Museum prior to works commencing onsite. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e7d247a0-1bd5-4a0a-8f5e-62793db181ed | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 26 Jul 2021 | | Submission deadline | 8 Aug 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 12 Aug 2021 - 14 Sep 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1 | | 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 ROYAL AIR FORCE MUSEUM | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | North West London | | Postcode | NW9 5LL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI7 Outer London - West and North West | | ITL 3 | TLI71 Barnet | | Local authority | Barnet | | Electoral ward | Colindale North | | Westminster constituency | Hendon | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 92500000 - Library, archives, museums and other cultural services ## Release History - 26 Jul 2021 at 12:32 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e7d247a0-1bd5-4a0a-8f5e-62793db181ed ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e7d247a0-1bd5-4a0a-8f5e-62793db181ed 26th July 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/6bf63e61-1199-48c9-a4a4-4ad4820d69f9 LON LMP LFP1 01 Cladding and decoration of infill section and strip out cafe space - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/436277cb-8dc9-4f63-b2de-4134268c5b30 LON LMP LFP1 02 Existing - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/ac43655d-003f-4de3-9dd7-6650d19adcac LON LMP LFP1 03 Images of Wessex Cafe - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/7b661a9c-4bea-4ae3-8fd5-98383ac15d7b LON LMP LFP1 04 Proposed design ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
