This procurement falls under the construction materials and museum services category. The tender period is set to close on 10 December 2018, with the contract expected to commence on 7 January 2019 and conclude by 31 May 2019. The project, valued at £20,000, seeks suppliers through an open procurement method, offering an equal opportunity to all interested parties. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in construction and display solutions, particularly those with experience in museum services. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, as this project aligns with their capabilities in providing tailored exhibition solutions that meet specific requirements for height, mobility, and visual harmony with existing displays. Companies that can innovate in creating adaptable and aesthetically cohesive structures will find this procurement aligns well with their strategic growth objectives. ## Notice The At Home with Music display in the Music Gallery features domestic keyboard instruments from a period of 500 years. Three instruments currently on display will be removed to allow three recently-acquired instruments to be installed in their places. Each of the keyboard instruments will be in playing order and will be used on a regular basis, therefore each of the plinths for the 'new' instruments must be capable of being used both in place AND withdrawn from its display space and wheeled to another potential performance space. The plinths that carry the instruments must be of a dimension that enables them to be wheeled through the doorway into the Music Gallery Performance Space, an area immediately adjacent to the Gallery but separated from it by a glass door. A fourth plinth will be required which can be wheeled and locked into place in front of the new plinths so that a performer can be comfortably seated to play each of the instruments. This arrangement demands that all four of the new plinths be of the same height. The new plinths, since they will fit into an existing display, must closely resemble in visual style the original plinths and those that remain. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c0c3fd6c-f700-44ec-ab3c-e0295650e91b | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | 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 2018 | | Submission deadline | 10 Dec 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 7 Jan 2019 - 31 May 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £20,000 | | 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 | THE HORNIMAN PUBLIC MUSEUM AND PUBLIC PARK TRUST | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South East London | | Postcode | SE23 3PQ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI44 Lewisham and Southwark | | Local authority | Lewisham | | Electoral ward | Forest Hill | | Westminster constituency | Lewisham West and East Dulwich | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 44 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 44000000 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) - 92520000 - Museum services and preservation services of historical sites and buildings ## Release History - 22 Nov 2018 at 09:08 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c0c3fd6c-f700-44ec-ab3c-e0295650e91b - 19 Nov 2018 at 15:29 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c0c3fd6c-f700-44ec-ab3c-e0295650e91b ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c0c3fd6c-f700-44ec-ab3c-e0295650e91b 22nd November 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/91108b04-a8b0-4237-812b-4fef2bbbf362 Tender brief - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/8807f56b-626e-4fef-bd26-72e0f153f06e Appendix A Instrument dimensions - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/e02d83ff-5c8a-4dad-a977-9f572d1e410d Appendix B Music Gallery Performance space scale plan - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/5f3a1b29-6ffa-4dcd-8c79-ff89e2206b16 Appendix C At Home With Music Plan and Elevation - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/531bcfb9-2ef5-4a87-96ee-6d2163f54b31 Appendix C Floorplan - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/29dc12ae-3eca-4c1a-b6b3-547fe9858ef0 Appendix C FireAlarm and lighting - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/6f357f0a-f255-47e4-ad7f-a32c0d8e522b Appendix C Level 1 lighting - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/f6ba9334-fe15-41e7-8f7f-931890e097de Appendix C Level 1 power, data and telecom - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/f442017c-3753-4e5f-807a-4ea5c7ecdb2e Appendix D Museum rules for visiting contractors - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/88767bea-a937-4509-9ad7-9ae00c61f475 Appendix E Guidelines for exhibition & display - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/4204564b-5441-4316-a99c-bab046f56377 Standard terms and conditions - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/b3bf9b7f-1492-466c-8489-486179be1884 Tender brief ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
