Description
Leicester City Council invites tenders from suitably qualified Suppliers for the exhibition design and fit out of multiple galleries at LMAG is an integral part of the Voices of Leicester project (funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund). The Voices of Leicester project represents the final stage in the master plan for LMAG, enabling the museum to be transformed into a modern and exciting visitor attraction for the people of Leicester. If we do not procure an exhibition design and fit out contractor, we will not be able to meet the approved purposes of our grant funding from NLHF and will therefore forfeit any funding to the city council.
Furthermore, Suppliers will be required to register on the Central Digital Platform (a Find a Tender service).
