Description

The Corporation is seeking Proposals from experienced and qualified Exhibit Design-Build firms.

For the second part of the project, for which CAFM is currently soliciting, the physical settings for the digital game will be designed and built. This comprises two separate immersive experiences:

A tractor cab experience based on the previous installation. This experience will be housed in either the existing tractor cab or a new tractor cab, supplied by CAFM (cab furnishing to be confirmed at the kick-off meeting).

The contractor will be responsible for the design and build of the installation including:

1. the console which will house the game controls
2. furnishings/graphics required for the cab interior
3. introductory interpretative panels (maximum two)
4. enclosure for the mount (upon which the tractor cab sits)
5. and, furnishings/graphics for the screen that will be mounted on the outside of the cab

A new ground-level enclosure that will replicate the tractor cab environment and be universally accessible. This experience will integrate real tractor parts (such as instrumentation, upper portion of tires, mirrors etc.), supplied by CAFM, into custom-built furnishing to house the interactive. The real tractor parts will be confirmed by CAFM at the kick-off meeting. Note that this experience will not be inside a real tractor cab; the enclosure will be entirely designed and built by the contractor.

The digital activity and learning objectives will be the same for both experiences.
CAFM will procure and install the digital equipment for both experiences.
These two interactive experiences will be installed in the West Wing Gallery of the Dairy Barn, 2nd floor, at the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum. The tractor cab experiences will be installed as stand-alone experiences (i.e. not part of a larger exhibition).

Note that the gallery space is in a heritage barn and as such is often dusty and is not temperature-controlled. The experiences must run well in dusty conditions with temperature fluctuations.
