## About this tender

NAM is staging a temporary exhibition 'Shakespeare at War' in the Focus Gallery at the National Army Museum, Chelsea, from 1st October 2023 to 1st April 2024. Based upon research from Kings College London and a subsequent publication, the exhibition explores how the works of Shakespeare have been used at times of war to increase patriotism and national pride, ridicule military opponents and examine the military lessons of the past.

NAM wishes to appoint a contractor to install the exhibition in the "Focus Gallery" which is approx. 50 m2. Many elements of the existing 'Road to Recovery' exhibition setworks are being re-used and others need to be disposed of (see Road to Recovery plans Annex G and Annex E). The tender is for the removal of these elements from the Road to Recovery exhibition, the manufacture of all new setworks that constitute the Shakespeare at War Gallery (Annex F) and one additional display case and all build elements as outlined in the attached documents Annex E Pricing Template and the design drawings Annex F (under separate cover). It should also account for painting the walls and cases, but not the ceiling or floor, protection of the floor, delivery to site and ethical disposal of waste. To allow fair comparison of tender returns tenderers are required to complete Annex E - Template for Pricing, which should be read in conjunction with all the design drawings in Annexes F & G. Failure to complete this may render the tender non-compliant and thus not be accepted. The contractor is responsible for confirming measurements from site and will not rely solely on the drawings. Contractors should account for working at the Museum premises within "normal" daytime (0800 - 1700) hours Monday to Friday.
