The project aims to ensure the HMS Victory is conserved to last for the next 50 years with only planned maintenance. The project started in the summer of 2022 and will span ten years, with the current supply contract covering the first three years (2023-2026) and having the option to extend for two additional years. The procurement stage is in the Award phase, and the awarded contract is valued at £457,000, starting from October 10, 2023, and ending on October 9, 2026. The delivery location is in the South East region of the United Kingdom, specifically in Portsmouth. This tender offers a substantial opportunity for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specializing in fasteners and related goods. Companies proficient in producing high-quality fasteners that can withstand 50 years in an open environment, especially those using teak and oak timber, are well-suited for this contract. Engaging with this project allows businesses to gain prestige and credibility by being part of an iconic and historical conservation effort. Furthermore, the open procedure offers a level playing field, where any interested and qualified supplier can compete, driving innovation and value in the supply chain. ## Notice The aim of the HMS Victory Conservation Project is to deliver a fully-conserved ship, in a condition to survive for the next 50 years without major work beyond a programme of planned maintenance. This project began in summer 2022 and is to take 10 years to complete. The conservation work includes the replacement of all external and some internal planking and structural elements and their associated fastenings, all of which need to survive for 50 years in an open environment. The timber to be used in the ship is a mixture of teak and oak. The NMRN is therefore seeking a supplier to provide fastenings for the first 3 years of this prestigious project with the option to extend for the further 2 years.
