Firms have until September 13 to register their interest

The contract notice says a masterplanner is required to deliver a feasibility study that researches and develops site options, function and business model for the museum.

The chosen practice will develop a brief for the project, including identifying potential locations for new-build and evaluating them against the option of repurposing an existing site. 

It will also be required to provide a package of information, including visuals, to promote the project to stakeholders and potential funders.

Interested firms should attend a briefing on August 24 at 12.30pm via Zoom with the three organisations behind the scheme. To do so, they must first register their interest at londonenquiries@focus-consultants.com. 

Requests to tender must then be submitted by September 13.
