What is being bought
Colchester City Council (the Council) wishes to commission experienced Exhibition Design consultants to be part of this upcoming iconic project and to provide exhibition design services from RIBA stage 1 equivalent to RIBA stage 6/7 equivalent and detailed design for fit-out contractors. You will work with the wider design team, including Architectural Design consultants to coordinate and support the wider redevelopment of the museum which includes the enlargement of its physical footprint. Due to the nature of the project and the museum collections the practice will need to be able to demonstrate relevant experience of exhibition design for museums and for NLHF funded projects in particular.
The commission is for full service from RIBA stage 1 to RIBA Stage 6/7 equivalents and detailed design (including detailed cost plan) but will include a break clause at RIBA Stage 3 for submission to the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Completion to detailed design will be contingent on the acquisition of round two funding.

•Appointment – September 2025
•RIBA Stage 2 equivalent – December 2025
•Pre-application – March 2026
•RIBA Stage 3 equivalent – April 2026
•Round 2 NLHF Application - May 2026
Break
• NLHF Round 2 Decision - September 2026
• RIBA Stages 4 – 6/7 equivalent – TBC with consultant, dependent upon successful NLHF application
