This project is classified under historical monument construction work and has an estimated value of £2,000,000, with a minimum threshold of £1,800,000. The procurement method is an open procedure for applicants below the threshold, with the tender period closing on 10 January 2020. The contract for the works is expected to commence on 30 April 2020 and run until 31 March 2022. The primary location for this tender is Swindon, United Kingdom. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for contractors specialising in heritage conservation, building construction, and preservation of historical buildings. Companies that can efficiently manage high-level maintenance, particularly for difficult to access areas, would be particularly well-suited to bid for this contract. As the site aims to return to public accessibility, firms with experience in sustainable conservation and a strong understanding of historical artefacts will find this project aligns with their expertise and capabilities. ## Notice English Heritage wish to appoint a Main Contractor to undertake the phased programme of repair works to Lincoln Medieval Bishops Palace under the principle of Sustainable Conservation. The majority of the site is closed to the public due to falls of decayed and spalling masonry. The over-arching objectives of the project are to: o Return the site to a safe and steady state condition. o Facilitate once more, public access to the whole of the site. o Work with the design team to deliver the optimum repair solution for the site which represents best value in terms of through-life costing over a 25 year period (Sustainable Conservation). o Alleviate the subsequent demand for onward maintenance, particularly of high-level and difficult to access areas of masonry, including those parts accessed via adjoining properties; it is our aspiration to avoid re-visiting and re-scaffolding such areas for a period of 25 years following this programme of repair (Sustainable Conservation).
