Over the next 12 years the National Museum of the Royal Navy (NMRN) is leading on the conservation of HMS Victory to ensure the long-term preservation of this world-class historic vessel. In addition to being the only surviving exemplar of a Royal Navy capital warship from the Age of Sail, HMS Victory continues to be a significant visitor attraction within the setting of No. 2 Dock and Portsmouth Historic Dockyard whilst continuing to serve as a commissioned warship and the Flagship of the First Sea Lord. The aim of the HMS Victory Conservation Programme is to deliver a fully conserved ship, able to survive in an open environment for the next 50 years without major work beyond a programme of planned maintenance. A key component of the project is the conservation of existing rigging elements including masts and yards - generally referred to as 'spars' - and assorted metalwork items - generally referred to as 'hardware'. As part of this, suitable coatings will need to be applied to the external surfaces of spars and hardware, and the internal faces of hollow spars. Further information can be found in the attached PPN notice to this advert. The NMRN will host an online engagement session on Wednesday 7th May 2025 to allow interested parties to pose questions and seek clarifications before the close of the expression of interest period, Friday 16th May 2025 Interest suppliers are welcome to express their interest to .
