The procurement process was an open procedure below threshold with a value of £37,000. The contract period starts on September 29, 2023, and ends on May 31, 2024. The tender was awarded to Donald Insall Associates, with the main procurement category being services. The contract was awarded on September 29, 2023. This tender opportunity presents a chance for businesses involved in museum services and preservation services of historical sites and buildings to engage with the City of London Corporation. The contract offers an opportunity for growth through providing consultancy services related to obtaining new COIs from Historic England and the DCMS. Businesses with expertise in building analysis against statutory requirements, dealing with Historic England and other relevant authorities, and preparing reports for certification purposes would find this tender well-suited for their capabilities. ## Notice The current Certificate of Immunity from Listing (COI) on the Museum of London and Bastion House is due to expire in August 2024. Consultants have advised that it is very likely that an application for a new COI would be approved by Historic England and the Secretary of State and if this was requested in 2023 a new COI could be provided in 2024, lasting five years up to 2029. A new COI would protect the Corporation from the risk of Bastion House and the Museum from listing which would provide the freedom for a refurbishment scheme to be designed that retains the existing buildings in some way or a new redevelopment scheme. In order to obtain a renewed CoI for each building, a report needs to be submitted to Historic England and the DCMS which explains why the building falls short of the statutory requirements for listing, including an analysis of the building against Historic England's relevant listing guide and relevant contemporary examples of similar buildings and/ or by the same architects, and a discussion of known new arguments in favour of listing. Donald Insall Associates would act as agents and liaise with Historic England, and, if necessary, the City, DCMS and the C20 Society throughout the process. This would involve - A joint site visit with the HE Listing Inspector - Liaison with HE/ DCMS/ C20 Society - Response to the HE draft reports - Liaison with the client team ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a2ff2c53-81e9-4b23-ac81-cd7b84d514b3 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 27 Oct 2023 | | Submission deadline | 15 Sep 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 28 Sep 2023 | | Contract period | 28 Sep 2023 - 31 May 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £37,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £37,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CITY OF LONDON CORPORATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | Central London | | Postcode | EC2V 7HH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | City of London | | Electoral ward | Bassishaw | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | DONALD INSALL ASSOCIATES | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 92520000 - Museum services and preservation services of historical sites and buildings ## Release History - 27 Oct 2023 at 09:19 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a2ff2c53-81e9-4b23-ac81-cd7b84d514b3 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a2ff2c53-81e9-4b23-ac81-cd7b84d514b3 27th October 2023 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
