Museum of Science & Industry - Relocation Works

Birmingham
2001, £1.6 million

As the specialist Project Manager, Fraser Randall was appointed to manage and co-ordinate the process, cost and programming of the removal and conservation of the Museum of Science and Industry transport and social history collections.

These collections were removed from their old existing site in central Birmingham to their new specially designed destination, Millennium Point over a period of eighteen months. This entailed close liaison and working with the HLF on funding issues and protocols, and curators and designers responsible for the new displays.

This integrated process was carefully programmed to allow both sufficient timeframe for considered selection to be made by the content team, conservation issues to be identified and costed, and specialist conservators to be sourced, formally appointed and works to be completed.
