The Framework Agreement for this tender, titled "The Graphic Design for the English Heritage Free Sites Project," will run until 31st March 2023, with the possibility of a one-year extension. The tender, classified under the CPV code for signage and graphic display panels, is currently in the active stage. Tender submissions must be completed by 8th January 2021, with the contract expected to commence on 31st January 2021. This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses specialising in graphic design and signage solutions, particularly those capable of handling projects at multiple heritage sites across England. Companies that are innovative and able to provide high-quality design services could see substantial business growth through this framework, as English Heritage anticipates engaging designers for various projects independently over the contract period. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that meet the requirements are particularly encouraged to participate. ## Notice English Heritage cares for over 400 properties, and of these, 270 are known as "free to enter sites". These are unstaffed and open to visitors free of charge at all reasonable hours, some have very involved friendship/community group, others are managed by volunteers or partner corporations and many are incredibly remote. Located across the breadth of England and representing a broad chronology, they range from small Anglo-Saxon crosses to Hadrian's Wall. English Heritage (EH) is looking to set up a Framework Agreement for graphic design at free site properties across England. This framework is expected to run up until 31st march 2023 with a potential 1 year extension for the supply of graphically design and artwork interpretation panels for the English Heritage Free Site programme as required. It is expected that each year of the contract we will produce interpretation schemes at up to 20 free sites. Most of these will require just one panel but larger sites may have up to ten panels and associated labeling. Note that this is a framework contract and English Heritage is not committed to commission any quantity of graphics from the successful tenderers. Each project will be commissioned separately. The designer will deliver graphic designs for various managers within the organization who will contact the designer directly and raise purchase orders separately.
