description

Quotations are invited for the provision of technical Accreditation advice to museums on behalf of Museum Development East Midlands (MDEM) from April 2015 to March 2018. MDEM is hosted by Leicestershire County Council. Technical advice is defined by Arts Council as expert advice based on a thorough knowledge and understanding of the Accreditation standard and its underpinning processes and its applicability to museums of different sizes and scales.

To end of March 2015 the function has been delivered by externally contracted consultants procured and managed centrally by Arts Council. That function is, from 1 April 2015, the responsibility of Arts Council-funded Museum Development providers across England.

The East Midlands region is defined as Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire and Rutland. There are currently 116 Accredited and working towards museums in the region (c. March 2015).
