## Summary

The Peak District National Park Authority (PDNPA) has completed a procurement process for "Interpretation and Exhibition Design Work for Visitor Centres," aimed at enhancing visitor engagement at three locations: Bakewell, Castleton, and Edale. The total contract value was £84,790.57, awarded to Wide Sky Design Ltd, beginning on 23rd November 2016 and concluding on 24th March 2017. This public procurement was conducted under an open procedure, allowing wide participation, and was classified under services related to leisure, sports, culture, lodging, and exhibition equipment. The procurement method was opened for submissions until 2nd September 2016.

This project represents a significant business opportunity for companies specialising in interpretive design, construction services, and exhibition equipment. Businesses that focus on creating engaging visitor experiences, particularly those with expertise in cultural interpretation and artistic installation, would be well-suited to compete in similar tenders. As the industry increasingly seeks innovative and emotionally engaging solutions, suppliers offering creative designs that enhance visitor understanding and interaction within natural environments may find a growing market.

## Notice

The Peak District National Park Authority (PDNPA) is inviting contractors to submit a tender for interpretive design, production and installation of exhibition work at three of its Visitor Centres - Bakewell, Castleton and Edale. The vision is to create innovative and engaging interpretation exhibitions within all three Centres to inspire visitors to 'get out and explore' whilst gaining a deeper understanding of the National Park. At the heart of this approach is a desire for the interpretation to engage with visitors on an emotional and physical level as well as an intellectual one. The overall aim of the interpretation is to inspire visitors to get out and engage with landscapes and encourage them to explore the Peak District National Park. The interpretation should instil confidence and motivate those less familiar with exploring natural environments
