In plain English
The Science Museum Group wants to appoint a lead designer to reinterpret the Great Hall, a large permanent gallery at the National Railway Museum in York. The role covers both exhibition design and graphic design, with an estimated value of £150,000.
What the buyer wants
• Act as lead designer for the exhibition and graphic design of the Great Hall • Develop the reinterpretation of this large permanent gallery space at the National Railway Museum in York • Deliver the reinterpreted gallery, not just produce concept designs
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice does not state any specific qualifications or experience thresholds, but a lead design role on a permanent national museum gallery at this value would most likely favour established exhibition and graphic design studios with a track record of large-scale museum work.
Always check the tender documents.
