About this contract

The London Borough of Sutton (Sutton Council) is seeking quotations from suitably qualified organisations to undertake Conservation of Edwardian Glass Plate Negatives. The Past on Glass is a digitisation project based in the Central Library, Sutton. In 2014 we received funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) to clean, rehouse, digitise, catalogue, research and conserve in excess of 10,000 Edwardian glass plate negatives. We are now at the stage of procuring the conservation of those plates most at risk. The plates vary in size from quarter plates to 10x12 inches with the largest plates the most in need of conservation. The contract will cover the time required to undertake the conservation of the volume of the glass plate negatives agreed, but it is anticipated that the work will be completed in the autumn of 2016. The Council is tendering this quotation through the London Tenders e-tendering portal. Prospective bidders are advised to register their interest by going to https://www.londontenders.org/procontract/supplier.nsf Sutton Council currently contracts with a diverse group of voluntary, statutory, partnership, social enterprise, consortium, mutuals and private sector providers. This list is not exhaustible and encourages a range of organisations, regardless of size, to apply for this provision. The Council shall not be bound to accept the lowest cost nor any quotation, and reserves the right to accept all or part of your bid. The award of contract shall be based on the most economically advantageous quotation submitted. Deadline for submission of a completed Quotation Questionnaire is 5 August 2016 at 14:00
