Description

The successful Interpretation contractor will be required to prepare and develop the design for the whole of the Interpretive Works, using the Interpretation Plan as a starting point, to full working drawings, in liaison with English Heritage.

The Interpretation contractor will be required to manage and co-ordinate the fabrication, construction and installation of the Interpretive Works to an agreed programme. All sub-contracts must be agreed with the Interpretation Manager. The contractor will also be expected to remove the existing interpretation before the new scheme is installed.
The Interpretive Works are to be designed, produced and installed under the standard terms and conditions of English Heritage. The firm that enters into the Contract will have the single point responsibility for the design, production and the installation of the Interpretive Works.

Design is taken to mean all 3D, 2D, Art-working and Lighting Design.

Also included is AV design and production of hardware and software along with access provision (such as intellectual access items, large print etc).

Additional works to the site for repair and refurbishment to enable the works should also be included in your scope of works - these can be agreed once the design develops but will need to come out of the total contract value available to you. It will be essential that the contractor liaises with the Interpretation Manager in a timely manner to ensure that any relevant requirements for the exhibition space are taken into account (e.g. sockets, weight-bearing issues, etc).
