Historic Paint Analysis (interior decoration) at Castell Coch

Award of a contract for the paint analysis of all interior decoration at Castell Coch in preparation for a larger conservation contract. A direct award is being made as the supplier noted in this notice has previously carried out a smaller analysis project which included developing a methodology for this work. Therefore it is Cadw's opinion that it would not be practical or demonstrate vfm for any other specialist to undertake this work owing to the supplier's unique understanding and familiarity with the monument.
