TERAMO. The reopening of the archaeological museum will be signed by a group of professionals who operate between Naples, Tolfa in the province of Rome and L’Aquila. This is the group of technicians to whom the Municipality has entrusted the planning for the damage repair and anti-seismic consolidation interventions of the historic building in Via Delfico which tells the story of the city and on the first floor houses the San Carlo room, the former seat of the court and one of the most evocative spaces in the center for conferences and other cultural events. The cards to bring back to life the museum dedicated to Francesco Savini, closed for eight years due to damage caused by the seismic shocks between the end of 2016 and the beginning of 2017 which made it unusable, will be the group formed by the Gnosis projects coop based in Naples, the Apoikia Srl, also Neapolitan, the other cooperative “Taitle Ingegno Multiforme” from Tolfa and the architect Elena Giancola who has his studio in L’Aquila.
The group in question presented the best offer among the eight received by the Municipality after the publication of the tender notice. In fact, the judging commission awarded him 89,150 points, of which 79,150 for the proposed technical solutions and 10 for the price charged. The winning consortium indicated a reduction of 36 percent on the tender amount which was set at just over 1.1 million euros. The designers will therefore receive just under 900 thousand euros, of which over 700 thousand for professional compensation, 28 thousand for social security contributions and almost 162 thousand for VAT. The funding available to the Municipality for the intervention amounts to 10.5 million allocated by the commissioner structure for post-earthquake reconstruction in December 2022.
The timeline established for the presentation of the documents on which to base the intervention provides for the completion of the first project level within one month from the official assignment of the task. Having received clearance from the offices on the documentation presented, the group of technicians will have a further two months available to deliver the executive project to be sent out to tender. In the preliminary analysis phase, four offers out of the eight in competition did not reach the minimum score dictated by the tender and were therefore excluded by the judging commission. The administration has scheduled a first meeting with the representatives of the trust consortium for Thursday 23 May to define some technical aspects also relating to the surveys to be carried out inside the archaeological museum. The need to transfer the finds during the study period of the structure will also be examined there. “We will evaluate the best solution with the technicians,” explains the mayor Gianguido D’Alberto, «our offices are, however, already working to identify an alternative space in which to display part of the collection». Under examination are Casa Urbani, near Piazza del Sole and where the cat museum is housed, and structures owned by other entities with which the Municipality has started negotiations. D’Alberto also hypothesizes “a widespread display” of the finds, distributing them in several buildings in the center in agreement with the Superintendence. «The museum had not been financed previously», recalls the mayor, «and from the end of 2022, when the funds were allocated, we started the procedure for the intervention, having already guaranteed the safety of the structure».
