## Summary

The Tate Gallery is seeking professional services for the redevelopment of the Palais de Danse in St Ives. The procurement process is currently in the "Tender" stage. The contract is valued at £500,000 GBP and follows a selective procurement method with a restricted procedure. The tender deadline is set for February 6, 2023, and the contract period spans from April 1, 2023, to April 1, 2026. The project will take place in the South West region of the United Kingdom under the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services category.

This tender opportunity with the Tate Gallery presents a lucrative chance for professional services firms specialising in architectural and engineering solutions. Businesses with experience in heritage restoration, structural engineering, and MEP engineering are well-suited to compete for this contract.

## Notice

Palais de Danse is one of the most unique spaces in St Ives. Formerly a cinema and dance hall, it was used by Barbara Hepworth from 1961 onwards as her second studio where she created some of her largest sculptures. The Palais is both deeply rooted in community memory and central to Hepworth's artistic legacy worldwide, and holds significance for local residents as well as historians and enthusiasts of modern art. Tate are looking to appoint a professional team to support this ambition and to realise an innovative design response to give the unique heritage of the Palais de Danse a new life. The architectural and engineering solution will secure the building for future public use and open it up to a broad range of visitors. A successful project will balance Tate's aspirations with the artistic, social, and architectural heritage significance of the Grade II listed structure and regenerate the site in a sustainable way for the future generations.
