    Brief

    The Science and Industry Museum is seeking suppliers to design and manufacture Group 1 interactive exhibits (Hero Exhibits) for its new Wonderlab gallery in Manchester. These large-scale, high-impact interactive installations will serve as focal points throughout the gallery, designed to create moments of wonder and delight for visitors of all ages. The exhibits should encourage visitors to think and act like inventors through hands-on exploration of science phenomena, tinkering, and testing. Key requirements include: creating communal 'wow' moments that impress large groups simultaneously; delivering surprising, novel, and visually striking installations; supporting the museum's mission to inspire the next generation of scientists and inventors; and fitting seamlessly into a welcoming, playful environment that encourages imagination and investigation. Suppliers should be experienced in creating robust, interactive museum exhibits that combine educational value with visitor engagement and joy. Interested bidders should consult the full tender documents for detailed specifications and submission requirements.
