## Summary

Cornwall Council is seeking contracts for the Kresen Kernow project, focusing on exhibition design, fit-out, and wayfinding services for a new archive centre in Redruth, Cornwall. The tender, classified under archive services, is currently in the Award stage, with a total contract value of £175,000 and a minimum value of £135,000. The contract will be executed in two phases, starting from 1st April 2016 to 30th April 2019, with an anticipated completion for exhibition opening in 2018.

The open procurement method encourages participation from various suppliers, including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), enhancing the prospects of local businesses in the South West region.

## Notice

Cornwall Council requires the services of a Contractor to undertake exhibition design and fit out and wayfinding for the new Kresen Kernow archive centre in Redruth, Cornwall. Kresen Kernow will be the new archive centre for Cornwall, bringing together the world's largest collection of archives, rare books, photographs and recordings about Cornwall in a permanent purpose built home. Alongside a state-of-the-art archive facility, we will be creating two exhibition spaces. The first exhibition space, on the ground floor, will be a flexible space designed in zones to display the breadth of our collections around key interpretation themes, identified during consultation. It should act as a stepping stone to further engagement. The second exhibition space, on the first floor, will be environmentally controlled, enabling us to display more sensitive material and borrow items from national collections. A comprehensive wayfinding scheme is needed throughout the building including all non-statutory signage. The Contract will be delivered in the following two phases: Phase 1 - Design Phase 2 - Production, and Installation Phase 1 will commence on the Commencement Date (as defined in the Contract Documents). Phase 2 will be conditional and the conditions relating to the commencement of Phase 2 are as set out in the contract documents included with the tender documents.The contract duration will be dependent upon the construction programme for the Kresen Kernow building. It is currently anticipated that the exhibition will be required for opening in 2018 but the Contract includes provision for an extension with an overall longstop date of 30th April 2019. Additional information: Due to the file size the Appendices recorded in Appendix 3 in the ITT are attached and can be downloaded for use. Any enquiries or requests for clarification of any matter relating to this ITT or its contents must be made in writing by e-mail or post to the individual named in section 2.1 of the ITT using the format contained within the attached Clarification Log.
