## Summary

The Nottingham City Council has completed the procurement process for the project titled "CPU 5368 Refurbishment of Africa Gallery Design Wollaton Hall", which falls under the architectural design services category. Located in Nottingham, United Kingdom, this project was initiated with an open procurement method and involved the appointment of a museum exhibition designer to refurbish the Africa gallery within Wollaton Hall. The contract commenced on 1st April 2022 and is set to conclude by 3rd April 2023. The tender was submitted for evaluation before the deadline of 24th March 2022, and the total contract value is £30,000.

This tender represents an opportunity for businesses specialising in architectural design and exhibition services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary/community sector enterprises (VCSEs). Firms with experience in museum projects, interior design, and the arts would find the bidding process particularly relevant, as the contracting authority seeks innovative design solutions to enhance the gallery's narrative around taxidermy and museum displays. Engaging in such projects can help these businesses expand their portfolio and establish connections within the cultural sector.

## Notice

Nottingham City Museums would like to appoint a Museum Exhibition Designer to design a new gallery in the Wollaton Hall Natural History Museum. The gallery is located on the first floor of Wollaton Hall and is approximately 150 square metres. The refurbishment is part of a long-term project to improve all the galleries within the museum as part of the Wollaton Hall & Park Transformation Programme. As such a Wollaton Hall Transformation Master Plan has been developed and approved detailing the design concept and themes for each space. The gallery in question is currently known as the Africa gallery containing large taxidermy within historic dioramas. The intention of the refurbishment is to open up, improve and expand on the current settings and to tell the story of the art of taxidermy. It will be expected that the designer follows the approved Master Plan. The project will be managed by the Museums Development Manager in consultation with the Senior Museums Management Team. The appointed designer will work closely with the delivery team which is made up of the Project Manager, Natural History Curators, Exhibition Fabrication and Installation contractor and any other contractors [including a structural engineer]. The project commences from April 2022
