The site is a fully operational, occupied and staffed storage facility that houses the majority of the museum's collection. As such extreme care is required when working within the building and around the stored collection. Paying particular attention to mitigating the impact of dust, debris, water, accidental damage and safe systems of work especially around the moving and use of ladders and access equipment. The fire system will consist of manual break glass call points, automatic smoke and heat detectors, aspirating pipe detection, electronic sounder/strobe units and suitable interface modules to suit the building layout. The building is a four storey former Victorian school based around three halls and associated classrooms. Other improvement works for the removal of asbestos will be taking place concurrently in some parts of the building, these works are localised in extent and are not envisaged to prevent the fire alarm being installed, although close coordination with the asbestos removal contractor will be required. Access to certain localised areas may be restricted for a maximum of 2-3 days, and works to the basement for up to two weeks. The successful contractor is required to work closely and collaboratively with the asbestos removal contractor to ensure all works on site are completed safely. This will require on-site co-ordination meetings with the asbestos removal contractor. The effective management of health and safety risks and programme is considered key for the successful delivery of these works. With all work to be completed before the 31st March 2023.
