## Summary

The National Museum of the Royal Navy is initiating the NMRN Storehouse 12 Collection Project, which involves the refurbishment of the ground and first floors of Storehouse 12 located within the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. With a budget of £1,100,000, this open procurement process is currently in the planning stage and aims for contract commencement on 1st May 2019, concluding by 1st March 2020. The project falls under the construction work category and is set to address significant enhancements, including the creation of storage spaces, a conservation lab, and improved facilities, while maintaining the usage of parts of the building throughout the refurbishment.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for construction and refurbishment businesses, especially those specialising in heritage projects and refurbishment works, to engage in a high-profile project within a conservation area. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as this project allows for competitive bids that can showcase innovative solutions aligned with the contractor's requirements, including the effective management of operations within an operational historic facility. Thus, businesses with expertise in construction, historical renovations, and project management would be well-suited to compete for this contract.

## Notice

The project comprises refurbishment of parts of the ground floor and all of the first floor of Storehouse 12 (SH12), a long and narrow brick-built warehouse building located within Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, dating from around 1860. This structure is not listed although it does lie within a Conservation area and the secure side of Portsmouth Naval Base. Storehouse 12 is just over 90m long by 8m wide with storey heights of approximately 5m and divided into three 'blocks' separated at Ground floor level by two former 'carriageway' spaces passing through the width of the structure, referred to as the North and South carriageways. The Ground floor of the building is currently occupied by the NMRN and the majority of the Ground Floor will remain in occupation and use throughout the course of the contract. The North and South carriageways will be vacated for the duration of the refurbishment works, with the Library/ Workspace area in Block 3 (adjacent to the South Carriageway) in use but then handed over to the Contractor for a Redecorations Refurbishment towards the end of the contract works. The other two Blocks at Ground floor level contain important document archives, and these must be kept sealed off and protected from the contract works taking place adjacent and on the floor above for the duration of the works, with NMRM staff permitted regular e.g. weekly access to inspect these areas. The works consist mainly of the refurbishment of the First floor to create two large storage spaces in Blocks 1 and 2 for incoming collections items belonging to the NMRN's collection, a staff workspace area and associated other facilities including: * New goods lift installed within existing lift shaft * Photography studio * Conservation lab * Two Secure stores * Staircase enclosures * Area for installation of a walk-in low temperature freezer to be installed by Employers direct works contractor The First floor will be thermally upgraded by installing new internal thermal linings to the walls and to the pitched internal roof soffit, to work in conjunction with minimal plant to provide mostly passively-conditioned storage and working space. The existing concrete floor will be refurbished and sealed, and two localised areas infilled with a timber infill floor structure. Insulated window infill panels will be fitted to most of the windows. The First floor will be completely re-serviced with electrical, lighting and data and life safety systems fed from existing incoming supplies. On the Ground floor a dedicated store room will be created for photographs and negatives and the two carriageways will become new entrance spaces. The works also include alterations required to the external walls to create new entrances to the North and South carriageway spaces on the East elevation, block up existing redundant fire exit doors, and to add a no. of new ventilation airbricks below window bays at First floor level.
