## About this tender

The National Gallery is appointing a Fire Engineering Consultant with the capability, capacity and relevant experience to support the delivery of a new development at the Gallery, located on Trafalgar Square in central London.

The Project will involve the development of a new building integrated with the existing National Gallery estate within a highly constrained and sensitive urban, cultural and heritage context.

The appointed consultant will be required to support the development and coordination of the fire strategy across the Project, including matters relating to means of escape,

compartmentation, smoke control, evacuation strategy, phased occupation, operational continuity, fire safety integration and coordination with the existing estate and publicly accessible environments.

The role of the Fire Engineering Consultant will include, as a minimum:

- acting in a lead role responsible for development and coordination of the fire strategy across the Project;
- advising the Client and Project Team on fire safety strategy, means of escape, compartmentation, smoke control, evacuation, phased occupation and operational fire safety considerations;
- supporting the development of integrated fire strategies across both the new development and integration with the existing National Gallery estate;
- supporting planning, statutory approval and Building Regulations processes relating to fire engineering matters;
- liaising with the London Fire Brigade, Registered Building Control Approver and other relevant stakeholders;
- coordinating fire strategy requirements with the Architect, Landscape Architect, Structural Engineer, Mechanical, Electrical and Public Health Engineer, Security Consultant, Accessibility and Inclusion Consultant and other relevant disciplines;
