## Summary

The Royal Botanic Gardens has initiated a tender for the "Cold Room Extension at Millennium Seedbank, Wakehurst". This project falls under the construction industry category, with a budget range between £120,000 and £150,000. The tender closing date was set for 11 November 2016, and the construction contract is scheduled to run from 5 December 2016 to 31 March 2017. This procurement process is classified as a tender under the "works" category and follows a specific procurement method, although the exact details are noted as 'not applicable'.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in construction and refurbishment, particularly those that are capable of delivering design, construction, and commissioning works. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, especially those experienced in operational projects in sensitive environments, as the existing facility will remain functional during the construction period. Companies that can demonstrate expertise in cold storage facilities and project management will be especially well-suited to compete for this opportunity.

## Notice

At Wakehurst, is the Millenium Seedbank. This building currently has a cold store facility that requires an extension. As part of the extension, we are looking to procure the design, construction and commissioning of the new cold stores (2nr) as an extension to the existing facility, which will remain operational during the work up to the point of final completion. Existing racking is to be removed and disposed of (To be priced as an 'Option').
