## About this tender

National Museums Liverpool (NML, 'Client') is inviting tenders to appoint a Principal Contractor and contractor team to deliver exhibition fit out services for the UK tour of 'Bees: A Story of Survival.' This is a new immersive exhibition experience created by award-winning UK artist Wolfgang Buttress in collaboration with NML. There are two UK venues. The exhibition will launch at National Museums Liverpool, World Museum, in May 2024, and will tour to one other UK venue in Edinburgh, Scotland, opening in June 2025. Exhibition fit out services to deliver the international tour will be procured via a separate tender.

The appointed contractor must provide an experienced team to successfully deliver the contract, working with the NML and the onward tour venue Project Teams, WBS and all sub-contractors to construct and deconstruct the exhibition. At the World Museum, the exhibition will occupy the temporary exhibition space and the William Brown Room on the second floor of the museum. The Exhibition Lead (Contract Manager) will be the main point of contact and person responsible for the delivery of the project on site at NML. The point of contact and team at the onward tour venue will be provided, once confirmed.

The contract is from the 19 February 2024 to 30 November 2025; and may be extended to 28 February 2026. The contract value for the full potential scope of contract including extension options is estimated to range between Â£130,000 to Â£150,000 GBP excluding VAT, (or between Â£156,000 GBP to Â£180,000 including VAT). Tenderers are advised that no guarantee can be given regarding the value, of business placed.

As confidential information relating to our exhibition is being shared by NML, procurement documents are made accessible to tenderers during the tender period who have agreed to, signed and returned the NML Non-Disclosure Agreement.
