## About this tender

NOTE: This notice was updated on 11 December 2017 for the following reason: The deadline for the return of tenders has been amended until 13 December 2017 at 12 noon.We have an aspiration to make the Severn Valley Country Park Visitor Centre one of the key visitor attractions and interpretation centres along the whole length of the river Severn. We aim to provide a modern, welcoming environment that incorporates innovative and thought provoking interpretation media to tell the story of the local riverine history and wildlife.

Shropshire Council is inviting tenders to deliver all technical design, construction and installation work for an extension to the Severn Valley Country Park Visitor Centre building and the creation and installation of the associated visitor experience interpretations as a single turnkey solution. We would like to hear from organisations who have a proven track record of delivering enhanced customer experiences within natural or historic public settings.

The extension includes approximately 100m2 of additional internal space plus an external decking / seating area. The successful contractor will be responsible for developing, building and seamlessly integrating an interpretive master plan within the build using a variety of inspiring and interactive media, the content of which is to be developed in cooperation with relevant stakeholders.

The project is scheduled to run from April 2018 to April 2019 and Work needs to be timetabled so that the cafÃ© and visitors centre are not closed during the busiest summer period. We anticipate much of the work being done during the Autumn/Winter 2018-19.

The project has a maximum budget of Â£500,000. As public money we are seeking tenders that give innovative design and value for money.

Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
