Description
The National Museum of the Royal Navy (NMRN) is seeking to appoint a suitably skilled and experienced contractor to carry out a regular cleaning contract at its HMS Caroline site in Belfast's historic shipyard.
HMS Caroline is a World War One battleship and the last survivor of the famous Battle of Jutland. HMS Caroline was also in-service during World War Two and has been a feature of Belfast's waterfront since 1924. The ship has been open to the public as a museum and heritage attraction since 2016.
The winning bidder will initially be tasked with a deep clean of both the Pumphouse Building and HMS Caroline to provide a clean environment for the museums collection team to handle historic material in the space. Similarly, HMS Caroline will require deep cleaning in preparation for opening to the public, which will be assisted by the NMRN team at HMS Caroline for access on board. Both the building and ship have been closed to the public since early 2020.
The full scope of requirements can be found within the ITT documentaiton.
Clarification Questions should be directed to tenders@nmrn.org.uk
Site Visits are essential for this tender to see where cleaning is required, this must be arranged with kerry.rooney@nmrn.org.uk as there is restricted access currently to the ship and building.
Details of site visits can be found within the ITT.
