## About this tender

The Charles Burrell Museum is seeking costs for an architect to work with the Trustees and Historic England to restore the Charles Burrell Museum which was a former paintworks

### TTC/19/100

The Charles Burrell Trustees have been invited to apply for a development grant from Historic England for the renovation of the Charles Burrell Museum (Formerly Listed as: Workshop to SW of No.8 (later Lambert's Coach Works). Grade II. MINSTERGATE (South West side). Thetford Town Council will be managing the project on behalf of the Trustees and Breckland District Council who are supporting the project.

Historic England have advised that the Trustees initially appoint their lead adviser and then put in the application for the development grant based on the figures provided by the selected architect/surveyor. The successful candidate will need to be conservation-accredited by one of the following bodies:

### The AABC (Architects Accredited in Building Conservation)

The RIBA (accreditation category SCA or CA, depending on the listing grade of the building)

### The RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors)

The CIAT (Chartered Institution of Architectural Technologists)

The partners are looking for a price to cover the two stages, beginning with what is known as project development, and then the following second stage which is the completion of the actual repairs.

The purpose of the project development stage is to identify as accurately as possible what the building defects are, the urgency and cost of dealing with them, and any constraints that might apply.

Most of the costs in the project development stage will be the fees for professional advisors. For simple projects, only one may be needed, such as an Architect or Surveyor, but others may also require a Structural Engineer, a Quantity Surveyor, or other specialists. Where more than one advisor is needed, the Architect or Surveyor will be the Lead Advisor, co-ordinating their work.

Providing a range of surveys such as a condition survey accompanied by investigation of the building (i.e., opening up and examining unseen or previously inaccessible areas).
