Located in Edinburgh, the tender is currently in the active stage, with submissions due by 6th August 2018 at 16:00. The procurement method is open, allowing for broad participation. Key aspects of the project involve the decommissioning of an underground plant room due to safety concerns and the construction of two containerised, above-ground plant rooms to minimise disruption at the site. This tender presents an exceptional opportunity for businesses specialising in construction, particularly those experienced in heritage projects, environmental safety, and custom-built facility management. Contractors who can demonstrate capabilities in managing confined space works and implementing robust flooding prevention measures would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Engaging in this project can help expand businesses into the Scottish market while contributing to the preservation of historical sites. ## Notice The existing underground plant room, which houses the sprinkler pumps, cold water booster set, water tank, sprinkler tank and associated electrical equipment, is located to the East of Duff House. The Plant Room was constructed in 1994. It was recently defined as a Confined Space by Historic Environment Scotland's Health & Safety Officer and is vulnerable to flooding from the river Deveron. Due to these concerns, it has been determined that the plant room will be decommissioned and removed, with two new, above-ground plantrooms constructed to the North of the house. These plantrooms will be containerised structures, fabricated off-site, in order to minimise disruption to the site itself. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The existing underground plant room, which houses the sprinkler pumps, cold water booster set, water tank, sprinkler tank and associated electrical equipment, is located to the East of Duff House.
