This initiative falls within the museum-exhibition services industry category and is taking place in Portsmouth, United Kingdom. Currently in the Tender stage, the deadline for submissions is 8th December 2017, with the contract period set to commence on 16th December 2017 and concluding on 10th May 2019. The procurement method is an open procedure below the threshold, with a minimum contract value of £84,000 and a total estimated value of £105,000. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in exhibition design and interpretation services to expand their market presence. The project’s focus on conservation and public engagement means that companies capable of delivering creative and educational design solutions, as well as those experienced in working within the heritage and museum sector, would be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in this contract may also allow for the development of unique experiences that could attract a large audience, capitalising on the expected 4.5 million annual visitors to the location. ## Notice The 350 Ton ship LCT 7074 is the only surviving Landing Craft (Tank) from D-Day, and one of only three in the world. LCTs were built crudely and quickly to carry tanks and put them ashore - 7074 took 10 to Normandy on 6 June 1944. This visionary project will secure a sustainable future for this exceptional survivor, completing the conservation that began with salvage in 2014, and showcasing her outside, alongside the new D-Day Museum - NMRN's project partners. This puts 7074 in the city's heart, engaging a potential 4.5 million annual users of Southsea Common with the story of the ship and her people; it puts her D-Day story - which uniquely links sea and land - in context for Museum visitors. The project will create unique activity opportunities in Portsmouth and beyond, train apprentices and volunteers in practical conservation, and create a unique future venue. An interpretation designer will be appointed to design the interpretation scheme. The interpretation designer will be expected to liaise with the other teams regarding the co-ordination of design elements. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8a71cfeb-7e62-4f81-9165-889c52fff473 | | 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 | 22 Nov 2017 | | Submission deadline | 8 Dec 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 16 Dec 2017 - 10 May 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £105,000 | | 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 | NATIONAL MUSEUM OF THE ROYAL NAVY | | Locality | PORTSMOUTH | | Post town | Portsmouth | | Postcode | PO1 3NH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ3 Hampshire and Isle of Wight | | ITL 3 | TLJ31 Portsmouth | | Local authority | Portsmouth | | Electoral ward | Charles Dickens | | Westminster constituency | Portsmouth South | | Delivery location | TLJ South East (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 92521100 - Museum-exhibition services ## Release History - 22 Nov 2017 at 10:03 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8a71cfeb-7e62-4f81-9165-889c52fff473 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8a71cfeb-7e62-4f81-9165-889c52fff473 22nd November 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - http://www.mytenders.org/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV148796 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.historicdockyard.co.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
