This procurement falls under the category of 'works,' related to museum-exhibition services and museum construction work, and is located in Wakehurst, South East England. The procurement process is at the Tender stage, with a submission deadline set for 19 November 2018. The contract is expected to commence on 10 December 2018 and conclude by 31 March 2019. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in exhibition design, museum services, and construction to engage in a major project associated with the prestigious Royal Botanic Gardens. Companies that exhibit strengths in producing visually compelling exhibitions and have experience in educational outreach would be particularly well-suited to compete. The scope of the project offers the potential to enhance business visibility while contributing to a significant public educational initiative about the importance of plants. ## Notice We require a suitably qualified contractor to undertake the production and installation of the State of the Worlds Plants (SOTWP) exhibition. The exhibition must be intrinsically linked to the work of Kew Gardens and the scientists in the Millennium Seed Bank at Wakehurst. It needs to explore 'Why Plants Matter' and unlock the content and importance of the State of the Worlds Plants research for readers at all levels. The exhibition will provide an opportunity to highlight the important work carried out by RBG Kew and to bring the MSB to life for our visitors as a global hub of scientific research and study. SotWP is a flagship piece of work for RBG Kew and requires a wide public appeal. The creation of a detailed, research-based exhibition at Wakehurst offers a fantastic opportunity to disseminate the content of SotWP to a wider audience and showcase the Millennium Seed Bank and Wakehurst as vital parts of the RBG Kew.
