The deadline to procure, test and install all hardware equipment on gallery is 15 October 2021. The successful AV hardware providers are responsible to establish clear and effective communication channels, supported by NML's project manager and NML's relevant project team, with the relevant software and AV contractors appointed for this project.

Wondrous Place is a permanent gallery within the Museum of Liverpool. The gallery is undergoing a major refurbishment to enhance the visitor experience through engaging and immersive content. The gallery is an eclectic mix of Liverpool's rich history and modern contribution to the worlds of Sport, Music, Performance and the Arts. With an over-arching theme of 'creative expression', the gallery explores varied subjects such as football and music and examines the passion they generate within the hearts and souls of the people of Merseyside. Through the objects, digital content and design, we hope to deliver an exciting and innovative gallery, animating our collections and contextualising them within the creative hub that is Liverpool. Overall, we want to provide an atmospheric, engaging and memorable experience for visitors. The gallery's key messages, which will be communicated through the gallery interpretation are as follows: * An extraordinary number of creative people have come from the city and this has contributed to Liverpool's strong global identity. * Liverpool's history and identity are expressed through its creative output. * Football and music are particularly important forms of creative expression in the city. * Protest, activism, and subversion have manifested creatively in the city to give the disempowered a voice to criticise and challenge authority. * Many of Liverpool's creative role models have their roots in our diverse and often under-represented communities. The key/core audiences we hope to engage with are as follows: * Families from Merseyside and the wider North-West region * 16 to 24-year-olds * Over 65s * Tourists to Liverpool (including oversea tourists) * Programmed school visits. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/809010e0-eb52-466d-a918-85ea625a63e5 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | 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 | 6 May 2021 | | Submission deadline | 12 May 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 7 Jun 2021 - 15 Oct 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | 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 MUSEUMS LIVERPOOL | | Locality | LIVERPOOL | | Post town | Liverpool | | Postcode | L2 2JH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD7 Merseyside | | ITL 3 | TLD72 Liverpool | | Local authority | Liverpool | | Electoral ward | City Centre North | | Westminster constituency | Liverpool Riverside | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 48000000 - Software package and information systems - 72000000 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support - 92000000 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ## Release History - 6 May 2021 at 07:17 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/809010e0-eb52-466d-a918-85ea625a63e5 - 14 Apr 2021 at 15:28 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/809010e0-eb52-466d-a918-85ea625a63e5 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/809010e0-eb52-466d-a918-85ea625a63e5 6th May 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/fe101bbc-7780-4578-8fef-c3f47694c761 Appendix A - NML Form of Tender - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/3930778f-78cf-401c-9e5e-56578fadd9e5 Appendix B - NML Supplemental Conditions - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/8c3dfb9c-7f6a-4033-af60-d6b3370b4a70 Appendix C - Safety Guidelines for Contractors feb2021 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/daa44b6e-20af-4f70-b353-63dfadc90ea6 Appendix D - Contractor HS assessment Questionnaire Feb2021 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/4c796486-5c56-4337-9483-19cbbc06efc6 Appendix E - NML Procurement Protocol - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/18c85e78-0ab3-4745-bbf2-0299f8eb1851 Appendix F - Setout and Performance Spec for Football Immersive Theatre-Rev_B - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/be7f276f-c2e3-4235-b4c8-594ebb5d1f44 Appendix G_Change Control Process_WP - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/ab34374e-4ea7-4cfe-aa01-7058bcd03cba Appendix H - Area 5.5 Football theatre elevations - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d9a6d491-b04b-4eb4-9c7a-3e6a88416b0b APPENDIX I - The Beatles Theatre-Rev_J - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/96f6c322-ed7f-491f-941c-eca5dd9994de APPENDIX J - WP immersive theatres tech specs - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/05f02422-3823-4ac9-b5b3-29b8ee1895bb APPENDIX K - List of Equipment - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/e7005759-5cca-4c79-bf90-12929a581830 Tender Specification - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/a3e6f755-5aef-4de5-a87e-0038d63d4b9c Q&A - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/fb6950db-13a4-4888-9844-b9e2777965e0 Image 1 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/3d7b0a0e-0919-4d1a-81a2-6ae02f18f3ed Image 2 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/11f90845-cdd5-44a0-bc97-9f3ddd39e572 IMG_0015 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/e0de1a07-f3e1-4393-86c0-2204bf085b8c LP006 A2 (1) ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
