## Summary

The National Gallery in London is currently undertaking a tender process for the NG200 Project Design Team Selection. This procurement opportunity falls under the architectural and related services industry category, with an estimated value of £3.5 million. The tender period is set to conclude on 18 March 2021, following a competitive procedure with negotiation. The project involves enhancing the arrival experience at the Gallery, with works scheduled to commence in phases starting in 2024, specifically during the Gallery’s Bicentenary year.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in multidisciplinary design, including architectural services, structural engineering, and heritage consultancy. Companies with expertise in public realm design and construction management will find this project particularly relevant, as the process requires teams that can deliver creative solutions for significant refurbishments. Businesses should ensure they meet the selection criteria and prepare to demonstrate their capability to contribute to the project across all stages of design through a collaborative approach.

## Notice

The National Gallery is seeking to appoint a multidisciplinary design team to lead the NG200 Project. The project focuses on enhancing the arrival experience at the National Gallery and has an anticipated construction budget of PS25-PS30 million. The project will be delivered in phases over the next five years, with the initial phase delivered during the Gallery's Bicentenary year, 2024. The initial phase focuses on the Gallery's Sainsbury Wing and works may include: remodelling the front gates, entry sequence and associated public realm; interior works to the lobby; limited remodelling of the first floor spaces; and upgrading the supporting facilities, notably visitor orientation and information, retail and security. Subsequent phases of the project may include further remodelling of the Sainsbury Wing interiors (excluding the second floor galleries); works to enhance the Portico on the Wilkins Building; further public realm works including Jubilee Walk; and a new Research Centre.
