Response summary:

I can confirm that The National Archives has not undertaken any construction or consulted on any possible construction since 1995. As such I am unable to respond to your questions as we do not have any current procedures or frameworks in place for this type of work. We do undertake maintenance and refurbishment of our buildings and as such we have information regarding the procurement and framework procedures for this. Please let me know if you would like to be provided with information regarding our refurbishment procedures.
