In plain English

The Horniman Museum needs a new refrigerated storage container to replace their current Spirit Store, which holds delicate museum items preserved in flammable chemicals. You will design, build, deliver, install and fit out the replacement container, plus do groundworks, utilities, and reposition other containers on site.

What the buyer wants

• Design and fabricate a replacement refrigerated walk-in Spirit Store container that meets museum conservation and safety standards • Carry out site preparation, groundworks, utilities connection and firewall construction • Deliver, erect and fit out the new container on site • Reposition existing containers on the site with associated groundworks

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: This contract requires specialist design-and-build capability for a complex refrigerated storage container with fire safety and conservation requirements; most small builders lack the engineering expertise and capacity to design from scratch and manage the full build-to-installation process.
