The National Army Museum (NAM) is undergoing a major refurbishment project which will see a radical transformation and is due to re-open in early 2017. The Museum will require an initial security presence at the Chelsea site from mid October 2016. Once reopened the Museum will require between 8 and 10 persons per day.

The Museum operates on the Chelsea site and at Stevenage. Both sites will require security staff on-site 24/7. A security contractor is required to provide an effective and efficient uniformed manned guarding service on a continuous basis.

The service includes, but is not confined to:

Control Room manning, alarm and CCTV monitoring;

Provision of staff for static and mobile posts;

Access control including public entrance duties and car parking;

Receipt of goods;

Emergency and evacuation duties;

Production of reports and documentation;

Other duties that may be mutually agreed from time-to-time.

Procurement will be via PQQ, which will short-list the potential suppliers to between 5 -7 suppliers, then ITT and interview. The tender board will consist of the staff of the National Army Museum.
