## About this tender

The National Army Museum is a leading modern museum with a strong reputation for high quality displays, teaching and research. Over 250,000 visitors were hosted by the Museum in 2013/14. By 2020, the Museum will host 400,000 visitors.

The Building for the Future major refurbishment project commenced in August 2014. The project will see the radical transformation of the National Army Museum and deliver new opportunities for accessing the Museum and its collections. The Museum is currently due to re-open to the public in early 2017. However, the Museum will require an initial 24/7 security presence at the Chelsea site from around mid August/early September 2016. Once a confirmed date of re-opening is available the security presence will be increased to meet the full service specification.

The Museum currently occupies two sites, the National Army Museum at Chelsea and the National Army Museum Store at Stevenage.

In accordance with standard Museum procurement policy, the provision of Manned Security Services at all premises is now to be re-tendered for a three year period provisionally commencing late August/early September 2016 at 0800hrs.
