What is being bought2 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionThe purpose of this procurement exercise is to develop a Framework Agreement of 3-6 approved production companies (Suppliers) that work with Kew Gardens and Wakehurst to deliver and contribute to our creative vision for our programmes. This procurement comprises two Lots: - Lot 1: Design & Fabricate – We will expect the Supplier to respond creatively to the Brief and use their design and inventive problem-solving expertise to develop playful, inviting, unique, innovative and aesthetically sensitive responses, and to then manufacture, install, maintain and deinstall all programme deliverables, as well as undertake all associated project management. - Lot 2: Fabricate Only – We will expect the Supplier to respond to a much more prescriptive Brief, and design practical solutions as required, and then manufacture, install, maintain and deinstall all programme deliverables, as well as undertake all associated project management.
