The procurement is currently in the Tender stage, with a submission deadline set for 4th November 2019. The project will take place in Bradford, Yorkshire and the Humber, and has a total budget of £45,000, with a minimum value of £40,000. This open procedure is an excellent opportunity for businesses to showcase their design and project management skills within the cultural sector. This tender presents growth opportunities primarily for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in design, project management, and exhibition services. Businesses that excel in collaborative work, have strong artistic visions, and can execute detailed design concepts will be well-suited to compete. The successful design team will not only contribute to the exhibition's creative elements but will also oversee the graphics production and installation, allowing for impressive exposure and a potential showcase of skills within a prestigious institution. ## Notice We are looking for a creative design team to work with the museum project team to bring this exhibition project to life. We would expect the designers to initially spend time with the content team to absorb the details of the exhibition. We would then look to the design team to distil this vision into a concept design covering all nominated spaces. Once approved by the NSMM senior managers, this concept is to be developed into a detailed design showing clearly how the concept ideas will map onto the practical detailing of our gallery spaces. Once this detailed version of the exhibition has been approved, then all elements will need to be art-worked to a production level ready to be sent to a graphics production house. We would expect the designer to work with the graphics company to ensure that all elements are produced to specification and to schedule. We would also expect the designers to oversee the installation of the graphics within the exhibition galleries. In addition to works on the graphics, we would expect the designers to collaborate with the fit-out company to ensure that their vision of the exhibition build is successfully translated into affordable build plans. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7b3cd4d8-fe67-43a7-8a34-c95198c6d8bb | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Oct 2019 | | Submission deadline | 4 Nov 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 8 Nov 2019 - 16 Jul 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £45,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCIENCE MUSEUM GROUP | | Locality | BRADFORD | | Post town | Bradford | | Postcode | BD1 1NQ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE41 Bradford | | Local authority | Bradford | | Electoral ward | City | | Westminster constituency | Bradford West | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 71242000 - Project and design preparation, estimation of costs - 92521100 - Museum-exhibition services ## Release History - 15 Oct 2019 at 16:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7b3cd4d8-fe67-43a7-8a34-c95198c6d8bb ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7b3cd4d8-fe67-43a7-8a34-c95198c6d8bb 15th October 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT158427 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.scienceandmediamuseum.org.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
