Description

In 2017 the HMS Warrior Preservation Trust merged with the National Museum of the Royal Navy (NMRN), following the merger the NMRN conducted surveys of Warrior's electrical systems and identified that it requires extensive rewiring work. Previously in 2018 a tender was advertised but was not awarded following feedback from the submitted bids.

The ship and its systems host a staff presence 24/7 across the whole year, with members of the public visiting during opening hours of Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. The ship hosts events on board throughout the year, with catering for events being supplied by the fully equipped professional kitchen on board the ship. The ship maintains numerous systems such as; a macerator, speaker, fire detection, lighting and ventilation systems alongside the public-facing role. This tender is intended to help support the current and future power requirements of the NMRN onboard HMS Warrior.

The NMRN is seeking to rewire HMS Warrior to bring all electrical systems on board up to standard, this is across the ship and partially to the jetty alongside Warrior. The scope of work that suppliers will be required to replace and update includes;
- Removal and replacement of the existing electrical circuits onboard including; LV/Small Power Systems
- Removal of existing Fire Alarm and commissioning new Fire Alarm System (to L5 standard and L1 performance) across the ship.
- Removal and Installation of a new ship-wide PA System
- Removal and Updating of CCTV System
- Replacement of HVAC Ventilation System Wiring and Controls
- Provisions to replace and update the Mast Downlights and fittings for Seasonal Lighting (Foremast Christmas Tree lights).
- Requirement to refurbish approx. 150-period accurate replica light fittings; including updating to LED lighting and rewiring to reinstall and reuse.

These requirements may change in scope so this is currently indicative of at the time of writing. Full details can be found in the documentation attached to this tender.
