The contract, valued at £30,000 GBP, falls under the Museum Services category. The procurement method is an open procedure with a tender deadline of 26th April 2024 and a contract period starting from 30th April 2024 to 2nd September 2024. The Museum is located in London, with the specific address being Royal Hospital Road, SW3 4HT, England. This procurement opportunity for the Stamper Trail project at the National Army Museum is suited for small and medium-sized enterprises. Businesses specialising in works within the Museum Services industry category can compete for this tender. The project involves creating units suitable for 4-10-year-olds and ensuring safety features for visitors. Companies interested in providing innovative solutions for interactive exhibits and mechanical design are well-suited for this opportunity. ## Notice The NAM is seeking to appoint an interactive company to design, make and install the mechanical stamper units and the stamps. The individual units must contain the following elements: * Mechanical enclosed unit with as few moving parts as possible. * Guidelines to ensure the booklet is placed in the stamp machine accurately to line up with the stamp positions, at two angles. * Because of the nature of the activity the Museum envisages that some of our visitors may wedge other items underneath the stampers, so we need the ability to clear this path quickly and easily. We do not want a large aperture where fingers could be trapped. * Ability to change the ink (and stamps if required) in the future and to have a spare set. * The unit must be encased in a lockable fascia to ensure that the mechanism cannot be interfered with by visitors. * The unit must be able to be operated with suitable force to provide a clear stamp, yet also not a danger to small fingers. * Parts sourced should be generic and easily replaced without reference to a specialised supplier. * The family stamper trail is aimed at 4-10-year-olds so the height of the machines needs to be commensurate with this age range. The Museum will agree the height with of unit in discussion with the successful contractor. * The units must be robust enough to withstand large groups of visitors. * Contain a place to detail instructions, hold replacement booklets and consumables. The instructional graphic panel will be produced in house, an agreed holder must be discussed with the Museum. * Units must be powder coated to match the galleries - RAL references tbc. * Ink must be fast drying. * The units must have a warranty period of at least 5 years from the date of installation. * Suitable units must incorporate a suitable cupboard space with adjustable shelf and kick plate to store consumables. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2a4cf699-e87b-41f0-adb6-9769977ba58f | | 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 | 3 Apr 2024 | | Submission deadline | 26 Apr 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 29 Apr 2024 - 2 Sep 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £30,000 | | 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 ARMY MUSEUM | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW3 4HT | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI33 Kensington & Chelsea and Hammersmith & Fulham | | Local authority | Kensington and Chelsea | | Electoral ward | Royal Hospital | | Westminster constituency | Chelsea and Fulham | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 92521000 - Museum services ## Release History - 3 Apr 2024 at 15:19 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2a4cf699-e87b-41f0-adb6-9769977ba58f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2a4cf699-e87b-41f0-adb6-9769977ba58f 3rd April 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/08157eac-be2b-4b90-99ec-2df5e42d9dc8 Brief - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/784178eb-fa47-43e1-8e2a-7b2c58121ba0 Annex F and G ## Notice URLs - http://www.nam.ac.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
