## Summary

The Science Museum Group is currently seeking tenders for the project titled "Science and Industry Museum, Manchester - Power Hall Temporary Roof." This procurement process falls under the works category within the building industry, specifically focused on miscellaneous building structures and associated construction works. The tender is now open and will close on 26th April 2019, with a contract start date anticipated for 15th May 2019, set to run until 14th May 2021. The work will take place in the North West region of the United Kingdom, highlighting an urgent requirement for constructing a temporary roof and internal crash deck to protect the museum's heritage asset from ongoing deterioration.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those engaged in construction, scaffolding, and building fabric repair. Companies that specialise in providing weatherproof structures and scaffolding services would be particularly well-suited to compete. As the procurement method is open, it encourages participation from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can demonstrate relevant expertise and capability in delivering similar projects for heritage sites. This could provide a valuable avenue for growth in their business portfolios, contributing to the preservation of cultural assets while expanding their operational reach.

## Notice

There is an urgent requirement for a temporary over roof enclosure and internal crash deck. The building continues to deteriorate rapidly. The protection against the weather is required to ensure the longevity and continued functionality of the heritage asset; to halt degradation. The enclosing 'wrap' must be weathertight and prevent water ingress. The design must provide for future adaptability for adaptation by a main contractor for repairs to the fabric, e.g. provision for compounds, site accommodation, walkways, to adjust the height and profile of the temporary roof to provide sufficient access and working space. In addititon to this an internal crash deck is to be installed as part of this contract.
