This tender falls under the works industry category, specifically for building alteration and restoration work, with a total contract value estimated between £100,000 and £500,000. The procurement method is an open procedure, and interested parties must submit their tenders by the deadline on 3rd December 2021. The contract period is slated to commence on 10th January 2022 and conclude on 15th April 2022. This tender provides an excellent opportunity for businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and those in the construction and restoration sectors, to engage in high-quality building works while contributing to the conservation of a nationally important site. Companies with expertise in traditional materials, restoration techniques, and electrical installations will find this project particularly suitable. Furthermore, collaboration with conservation professionals and adherence to strict quality standards will enhance the potential for businesses to establish strong relationships within the cultural heritage sector. ## Notice The nature of the works being tendered are careful building restoration and alterations works using traditional materials and building techniques within the historic fabric of a nationally important Grade 1 listed museum. The works are specified to be of the highest quality and are required to be carried out with the utmost care and attention to detail. Within the works, it is vital that the contractor effectively protects the adjoining fabric and museum artifacts that are to be retained in-site. It will also be essential that the contractor effectively seals the site area to prevent the spread of dust and building debris from the site. The successful contractor will be asked to work and coordinate with the in-house conservation team and an external conservator to carefully erect scaffolding and provide protection within the space. Elements of the building works will involve the contractor working with external conservators, for example the reinstatement of historic glazed panels within the new elements of joinery and the re-configuring of the columns at the head of the Basement Stairs. The contractor must make allowances within their programme for this work. The proposed works include a CDP (Contractor's Design Portion) for the first fix electrical installation which includes the new lighting specified in the tender documents. The proposed design must be undertaken by an accredited NICEIC electrician and the installation must be NICEIC certified. The contractor will be asked to attend site meetings with the employer and the architect on a fortnightly basis and will also be asked to liaise directly on a day-to- day basis with the Museum's House and Facilities Manager. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d15d194b-9869-494f-8ff9-b4e50bec0d3e | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Works | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Nov 2021 | | Submission deadline | 3 Dec 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 10 Jan 2022 - 15 Apr 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £500,000 | | 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 | SIR JOHN SOANE'S MUSEUM | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | Central London | | Postcode | WC2A 3BP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI36 Camden | | Local authority | Camden | | Electoral ward | Holborn & Covent Garden | | Westminster constituency | Holborn and St Pancras | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 45 - Construction work ### Codes - 45262700 - Building alteration work - 45454100 - Restoration work ## Release History - 12 Nov 2021 at 12:10 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d15d194b-9869-494f-8ff9-b4e50bec0d3e ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d15d194b-9869-494f-8ff9-b4e50bec0d3e 12th November 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-GB-London:-1255---Alterations-and-Repairs-to-The-Student's-Room-at-Sir-John-Soane's-Museum/7YG62624A2 Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
