## Summary

The Nottingham City Council has completed a tender for archaeological services titled "Nottingham Castle Archaeological Evaluation in the Middle Bailey (CPU 3014)." This project involves the installation of a new electricity substation within the Middle Bailey of Nottingham Castle, essential for enhancing the electrical supply at the site. The contract period began on 18th June 2018 and concluded on 17th May 2019, with a total contract value of £7,230. The procurement was classified under the CPV code 71351914, specific to archaeological services, and was executed through an 'Other' procurement method, with the tender process formally concluding on 1st June 2018.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the archaeological and heritage conservation industries. Companies that specialise in archaeological evaluations, historical site preservation, and utility infrastructure projects would be particularly well-positioned to compete. The focus on a historical site like Nottingham Castle allows businesses with expertise in sensitive archaeological work to showcase their skills while contributing to the preservation and enhancement of a culturally significant landmark.

## Notice

As part of the Nottingham Castle Project a new electricity substation is required in order to provide renewed and additional electricity supply across the site. The current proposal is to locate the substation immediately off the access road on the approach to the Ducal Palace, to the southwest of current parking bays. The proposed location is within the Middle Bailey of the medieval castle, approximately 1.5m from the wall of the castle. The location is immediately above the early 18th century cave known as the Slaughterhouse Cave
