3.1.2.2 Master Program Assessment
To determine the factors driving program evolution, a net square metre comparison of the 2019 masterprogram to the existing operations was performed. This side by side comparison demonstrated and provided rationale for changes in space requirements.
Detailed descriptions of the program areas and rationale for the area requirements are provided in Appendix D. The major factors contributing to change are:
Museum’s Mandate, Service Plan and Vision:
o The Museum’s Mandate and Service Plan have evolved to accommodate the focus on making collections available in a number of ways for learning and outreach as well as taking a leadership role in Truth and Reconciliation and Articles 11, 12, 13 and 15 of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
The Indigenous collections at the Royal BC Museum are immensely significant.In the spirit of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, the Museum is deeply committed to advancing knowledge and understanding of Indigenous cultures through partnerships with Indigenous knowledge keepers and experts. Due to inadequate and limited space, the existing building does not allow for proper storage of these collections that provide the dignity necessary for ancestral remains and other critical Indigenous collections. Proper ceremonial space will be provided within an Indigenous collection vault as well as a healing space to support Truth and Reconciliation.
Learning will be at the heart of the new museum and will be embedded into every aspect of their practice. Through expanded learning programs, the Museum will be able to provide greater access to quality cultural education to people across British Columbia, including:
Museum Learning and Outreach Centre;
Digital Media and IT Studio;
Multipurpose area (ie Performance area and auditorium);
Community program offices; and
Outdoor learning environments.
The modernized Royal BC Museum will be better able to fulfill its mission by protecting the collections for future generations, by engaging communities across

BC and by increasing access on a wider and richer variety of future technology platforms.
Commercial Entities:
o IMAX, or a comparable premium commercial entity, will support revenue generation and economic sustainability while encouraging repeat visitation. Such enhanced visitor amenities, combined with a wider range of retail shopping and dining experiences, will extend the time visitors stay on site and contribute to ongoing financial sustainability.
Expanded Gallery Space:
o To support the goal of public access to collections increasing from one per cent to approximately 50 per cent, there will be an expansion of core gallery spaces with new narratives to display more of the collection and provide culturally specific programming, two temporary exhibition galleries at ground level (to avoid the approximately eight weeks downtime to change over travelling and block-buster exhibitions), a community gallery for community based programming and a hands-on orientation gallery in the Learning Centre.
Best Practices:
o The existing buildings’ space and storage constraints do not meet modern preservation guidelines. The 2019 master program will allow:
Decompression and rehousing of collections currently held in substandard housings or jammed into spaces inappropriate for preservation guidelines;
Organization of Indigenous collections in language based sequence for greater community access; and
Separate clean and dirty working spaces for collections to prevent contamination.
3.1.2.3 Master Program Technical Assessment
In 2013, the Museum undertook the development of a functional program to address their program deficiencies as part of a master planning process. At that time, the master plan was unable to consider the fulsome replacement of the Museum. This resulted in a process that was constrained by existing, outdated, seismically deficient and generally inadequate facilities, complicated commercial arrangements and undersized developable areas, despite the generous zoning allowed on the site. Outlined below are some of the constraints the Museum worked within and the technical differences between the 2013 functional program (used in the development of the Concept Plan) and the 2019 master program, including:
Royal BC Museum ProjectService Delivery Analysis Final Report
Page 8
Programmatic elements in the Exhibition building were generally left ‘as is’ with few exceptions. The general approach was not to displace major functions unless significant space could be freed up and function could be accommodated in a back of house area;
The 2013 functional program worked with the existing Exhibition Building, limiting space for integration of learning or expansion of exhibits into the museum. Since there was little added space for exhibits, learning spaces were significantly compromised from modern museumstandards;
The existing buildings were unable to accommodate modern museum circulation factors based on area and are very low by current museum standards;
Most of the existing museum’s central plant (heating and cooling) is offsite and was to remain that way in 2013. With a new facility the Museum is able to take control of their heating and cooling needs and bring a modern, efficient and right sized central plant and associated spaces on-site;
The Museum was unable to eliminate collections scattered in four locations and consolidate into one facility;
New passenger, collection and freight elevators were not possible in 2013 due to existing building constraints. A new facility provides the opportunity to modernize vertical circulation;
The size constraints of the existing Museum Exhibition building did not allow for a dedicated Indigenous collection space. A new facility supports the Museum’s efforts in TRC and UNDRIP by providing separate space for Indigenous collections support and storage vault with added ceremonial space within collection vault; and
IMAX Victoria was not included as it is a separate business managed by a commercial partner.
3.1.2.4 Program Separation
The Museum was directed in their 2019/2020 mandate letter to explore the opportunity to move the collections offsite to reduce the risk of a catastrophic event impacting both the exhibitions and collections. Understanding there would be operational impacts from the separation of the program, the Project Team met with Museum department heads to document the pros and cons of consolidated and separated programs. A summary of those considerations can be found attached as Appendix E.
The findings indicate that while some minor duplication of space and functions would be required, separation of the program provides increased safety and security to the collections and staff that work with them and provides opportunities to highlight the other, often overlooked, responsibilities of the Museum, such as research and collections, as well as community outreach and learning programs.

Working with the Project’s museum planner and the master program, it was determined that approximately 3,000 m2 (33,000 ft2) of office space and 15,800 m2 (170,000 ft2) of light industrial space was required over the construction term, estimated at five years.
The current market in greater Victoria for office space and appropriately zoned research and collections space is considerably constrained. A healthy vacancy rate (giving both landlords and tenants options and flexibility) is generally considered to be approximately six per cent. Currently, across greater Victoria, office space vacancy is approximately 6.5 per cent, while industrial vacancy is under two per cent.4
Options are available locally to meet the Museum’s temporary office needs during construction.Adequate light industrial space, however, could not be found. The Project Team worked with an external real estate advisor to identify available space to purchase or lease to house the collections during construction. An extensive search identified 15 locations that would accept the Museum and, combined, would only provide 8,890 m2 of space within a 32 kilometre catchment of the existing site (refer to Attachment 2 of Appendix G). In extending the search beyond the 32 kilometre restriction of the collective bargaining agreement, it was determined that the Museum would have to store some or all of its collections off of Vancouver Island. At this time no single suitable location could be identified in metro Vancouver.
4 RECOMMENDATION
Based on the content of this comprehensive report, the analysis concludes that Option 4, a new museum on the existing site and a research and collections facility on a new site, best meets the stated objectives and is therefore the recommended option.

Title: Outline Narrative: Content for New Museum
Our Present
The Royal BC Museum is a trusted source of knowledge about the people, lands and pivotal events impacting British Columbia. Our unique influence derives from extraordinary collections and archives built over 133 years, our research and the public enthusiasm for the stories we tell and the work we do.
The Royal BC Museum provides outstanding education, training and life-long learning experiences. We host school groups in ever increasing numbers and develop teaching and learning experiences to support evolving school curricula. At a more advanced level, we provide training and internship opportunities for the next generation of researchers and scientists.
The Royal BC Museum is deeply committed to leading Canada on the repatriation of Indigenous belongings and ancestral remains within the broader context of Truth and Reconciliation Commission and United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
Our Future
The Royal BC Museum will be a world-leading museum and gathering place that invites the public to learn with their minds and their senses - not just as spectators, but as full participants in the life of the museum, democratizing knowledge and the experience of discovery. We will lead on repatriation and the interpretation of Indigenous culture. We will seek out multiple perspectives on BC identity, broadening existing cultural narratives and fostering inclusivity.
Evident in everything we do, will be the inclusion of Indigenous knowledge and natural sciences. As we explore pressing global challenges from a uniquely BC perspective, topics will include the unprecedented environmental and humanitarian challenges of the 21st century.
The Royal BC Museum will become a provincial network of local and global institutions including museums, archives, Indigenous cultural centres, educational institutions and government. Partners will collaborate across the network to develop best practice, produce and share content, create programs and exhibitions, and connect with people in their homes and communities.
2
Page 2
The Royal BC Museum will become a global digital platform - a vibrant online museum of ideas and inspiration that fosters engagement through dialogue, collaboration and play. Research and curated content will be woven together with engaging programs to encourage people everywhere to work together on global challenges. The Royal BC Museum will ensure the collections are safeguarded for generations to come, housed in spaces that meet rigorous conservation and security requirements, in a seismically sound and environmentally sustainable manner. Public access to collections will increase from 1% to approximately 50% as a result of the modernization project.
We will offer enhanced visitor amenities, with a wider range of retail shopping and dining experiences to extend the time visitors stay on site and contribute to ongoing financial sustainability.
Our Narratives Three overarching narratives underpin how we are developing the new museum as a place of wonder and how we are shaping the research we do, the collections we care for and the stories we tell. Narrative 1: Indigenous Reconciliation The Indigenous collections at the Royal BC Museum are immensely significant. These collections connect us with the many Indigenous peoples who shaped the land millennia before colonization. In the spirit of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, the Royal BC Museum is deeply committed to advancing knowledge and understanding of Indigenous cultures through partnerships with Indigenous knowledge keepers and experts. The Indigenous voice will be integral to every aspect of the future museum experience. As a site of civic engagement, the future museum will work to support the sharing and broadening understanding of traditional cultures, knowledge and languages. This includes the following physical areas:
Indigenous Welcome – At the heart of the new museum will be an entrance area that provides a helpful and engaging orientation and welcome. This area acts as a gateway to the entire museum experience. It will be uniquely Indigenous in style. Ritual and Ceremonial Space – This programmatic area will engage all visitors. At times, it will be used for ceremonial purposes by Indigenous communities, at other times as
3
Page 3
areas for symposia, talks and lectures. Repatriation Resource Centre – The Repatriation Resource Centre will respond to the growing demand for repatriation and for unlocking the holdings of the archives especially around residential schools. The Centre will include an expanded and publicly accessible collections database that includes archives, objects, research, language and film resources, and photographs in the museum’s Indigenous and archival collections. The new museum will integrate community service activities across BC, including the provision of technical assistance to Indigenous communities seeking the repatriation of their cultural belongings. We will provide training opportunities to Indigenous communities on repatriation, greatly enriching the role of the museum in TRC and UNDRIP. Drawing on Traditions Exhibition – This exhibition will reflect the public’s demands for more information on Indigenous history and life. This major exhibition will create an entirely new narrative about Indigenous peoples and cultures whose deep history goes back at least 30,000 years. In collaboration with Indigenous communities, the exhibition will reflect complex spiritual relationships with the natural world and intimate knowledge of diverse environments. It will challenge pre-existing ideas about Indigenous cultures and highlight their beauty, diversity and variety. Conservation Centre – The Royal BC Museum will provide conservation, preservation and stewardship of Indigenous collections in its care consistent with traditional care principles. The Conservation Centre will also assist Indigenous communities, museums and Aboriginal centers to address the care of their collections. Mortuary House – The Royal BC Museum will continue to play a significant role in the respectful repatriation of ancestral remains and associated sacred materials. We will also continue to support communities in caring for those ancestors being prepared for repatriation from outside of BC. Our Living Languages Exhibition – A partnership exhibition that supports the revitalization and preservation of Indigenous languages. Our Living Artists Studio – Hosting Indigenous artists to revitalize living cultures.
Narrative 2: Building a Sustainable World Using collections, research and a deep understanding of the past, we look to explain the direction and impact of future changes. Our scientists explore patterns of BC biodiversity across eco-systems, communities, wildlife habitats and species. Our collections related to at-risk
4
Page 4
habitats put us at the forefront of efforts to track the effects of climate change on the flora and fauna of the province. “British Columbia is already experiencing the impacts of climate change: average temperatures are increasing, sea levels are rising and variable and extreme weather is becoming more frequent. Managing these risks now is essential to protect our well-being, improve our prosperity, and lower costs for generations to come.” - Province of British Columbia By integrating traditional Indigenous knowledge and natural sciences, the museum is uniquely positioned to broaden the public’s understanding of climate change, history and living cultures. The museum will develop narratives responding to global issues such as migration, discrimination and intercultural dialogue. This focus on Living Cultures responds to UNESCO’s acknowledgement that “cultural diversity is the very substratum of all human activities, which derive their meaning and value from it. Diversity must be the starting point, rather than an obstacle to be overcome. Cultural diversity invites us to think I terms of plural humanity, embodying a creative potential that precludes any prescribed model of developments”. The architecture of the new museum will provide an extraordinary starting point to engage audiences with the natural world and contemporary environmental sustainability issues. Some examples include:
Exhibition – Restless Earth: BC’s Geological Time (featuring the museum’s geological and mineral collections, incorporating current issues such as natural disasters and emergency preparedness) will be an area of wonder an inspiration. Exhibition – Mass Extinctions (featuring the museum’s paleontology, invertebrate and insect species collections to explore the impact of human activities in the anthropocene age) will enable visitors to engage in a dialogue about the future. Exhibition – Pacific Worlds will take visitors on a journey through the diversity of living landscapes and cultures along the British Columbian coast (featuring the museum’s Indigenous and marine collections and Japanese tsunami debris research). Public Realm – Environmental Sustainability will explore how we use our natural resources (featuring the museum’s herbarium and keystone species collections to look at current issues of sustainable agriculture, food security and green technologies). Digital Planetarium/Virtual Reality experience will integrate natural sciences with Indigenous cosmologies in a completely unique and engaging manner.
Narrative 3: Opening the collections for Learning and taking BC out to the World The museum’s mandate focuses on making collections available in a number of ways for learning and outreach. Learning will be at the heart of the new museum and will be embedded
5
Page 5
into every aspect of our practice. We will provide culturally safe spaces for communities to engage with collections in meaningful ways. Learning is life-enhancing and an essential part of every visitor's experience. It brings pleasure, participation, self-expression and key skills into the lives of adults and children. Through our expanded learning programs, we will provide greater access to quality cultural education to people across British Columbia. This includes:
Museum Learning and Outreach Centre – The Centre includes a series of flexible areas where different types of learning can take place, catering for the widest possible variety of audiences, including those visitors with additional needs. These spaces are characterized by natural daylight and good acoustics to improve the experience of learners. Storage areas allow hand-on collections to be readily available. Spaces for adults and children encourage inter-generational learning. Through a digital interface with collections catalogues, visitors are invited to make their own annotations in collection records, to contribute to the ongoing discourse. Digital classrooms enhance the museum’s ability to reach students in all part of the province in an accessible, cost effective way.
Digital Media and IT Studio – This future-proofed studio will provide a creative environment, emphasising the sharing information and ideas in both digital and physical forms, including 3D scanning and composite photography. Performance Area and Auditorium – This multi-use, flexible space will house symposia, talks, lectures and arts performances encouraging participation by communities from around the province. Community Program Offices – To support our provincial partnership network, the museum will include flexible, onsite work spaces for network members to facilitate collaboration and sharing of best practice. Summer Learning Terrace – Holistic learning includes engaging with the natural environment. The new museum will incorporate a variety of outdoor learning spaces to broaden the impacts of our programs.
The modernized Royal BC Museum will be better able to fulfill its mission by protecting the collections for future generations, by engaging communities across BC and by increasing access on a wider and richer variety of future technology platforms, whilst supporting opportunities for long-term financial sustainability.

Royal BC Museum
Business Case Service Delivery Options Analysis
Appendix E – Program Assessment
August 2019
1 PURPOSE
The Royal BC Museum (the “Museum”) and the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture (the “Ministry”) are undertaking development of a detailed business case to seek government approval for the redevelopment of the Museum (“the Project”). The purpose of this activity is to assess the impacts on operations should the program be separated onto two sites, one a museum and the other a Research and Collections Facility and the extent to which a consolidated or separated program aligns with the Museum’s Vision.
2 BACKGROUND
Museums tend to be located in or near the communities they serve and traditionally the best practice has been for collections and public galleries to be Consolidated. Historically this rationale was based on limiting the risks to collections developed at a time of less secure transportation methods than are now available to us. Some legacies to museums even went as far as stipulating no travel clauses such as the Burrell Museum in Glasgow, which recently took an Act of parliament to reverse so the collection could tour while the museum was closed for renovation.
As transportation has improved and risks to collections have been negated, the need for a one site museum has evolved. Another factor in the development of multi-site museums has been the increase in land values of city centre museum locations making expansion prohibitively expensive. New thinking is also emerging around diversifying the risk to museum collections with multi sites after the recent fires at the National Museum in Brazil, Glasgow School of Art and Notre Dame.
3 INTENDED OUTCOMES
The assessment process is based on the insight, experience and expertise of the key department heads and stakeholders from the Museum. Through a comprehensive workshop and using a matrix structure to document the strengths, weaknesses, pros and cons, the assessment considered impacts on the Museum’s operations and identifies opportunities that may be presented as a result of separating the program. The intent is not to make a recommendation on whether the program should be Consolidated orseparated, but to document the operational impacts so they are considered in the service delivery options analysis.
The detailed documentation is following:

1 PROJECT BACKGROUND
The Royal BC Museum (the “Museum”) and the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture (the “Ministry”) are undertaking development of a detailed business case to seek government approval for redevelopment of the Museum (“the Project”). The Project Team, including representatives of the Ministry, Museum andPartnerships BC, retained Devencore Company Ltd. (Devencore or the “Land Advisor”) to assist with the land identification and assessment aspect of the business case.
2 PURPOSE AND SCOPE
The purpose of this analysis is to identify sites and assess their associated capability to accommodate the Project’s service delivery options as identified in Section 3. At the conclusion of this analysis, site recommendations will be made for each service delivery option to the extent that viable sites can be identified.
3 SERVICE DELIVERY OPTIONS
As part of the Museum Concept Plan (the “Concept Plan”) completed in October 2018, the Project Team undertook a preliminary analysis and put forward a recommendation of service delivery options to be assessed in the business case phase for the modernization of the Museum. The Concept Plan included the development of preliminary project objectives and assessment criteria, and associated analysesresulting in the identification of two preferred service delivery options requiring further investigation. Based on direction received from Treasury Board in their decision letter, the recommended service delivery options from the Concept Plan were to be updated. This resulted in identification of an additional two service delivery options for consideration. The final recommended options for consideration and analysis in the business case include:
Replace on New Site(s)
Option 1: Development of a consolidated museum and research and collections facility on a new site.
Option 2: Development of a new museum on a new site and a new research and collections facility on a separate new site.
Replace on Existing Site
Option 3: Development of a consolidated museum and research and collections facility on the existing site.
Option 4: Development of a new museum on the existing site and a new research and collections facility on a separate site.
These options result in the need to examine four potential site requirements: the existing site, a new consolidated site downtown, a new museum only site downtown, and a new research and collections facility site.
Appendix F – Site Identification and Assessment ReportPage 4
4 SITE IDENTIFICATION AND ASSESSMENT
Undertaken by the Project Team and the Land Advisor, potential sites were identified for a consolidatedprogram and a separated program. The identified sites were evaluated in two stages; the first stage was against a set of minimum mandatory requirements based on location, size and logistics considerations, followed by the second stage of analysis including key site considerations such as price, assembly complexity and accessibility. Sites that did not pass the minimum requirements were not considered in the subsequent analysis. Following the assessment against the key considerations, a site recommendation was made for each service delivery option.
The process the team followed is described further in the sections following.
4.1 SITE IDENTIFICATION
Working with the Land Advisor, the Ministry of Citizens’ Services (CITZ) and the Ministry of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation (MIRR), the following sources were utilized in the identification of available sites.
For new sites a review of the following sources of potential sites included:
First Nations lands;
Private sector lands potentially available for sale;
Private sector lands currently available for sale; and
Crown Lands.
Data sources included:
Commercial brokerage firms and Multiple Listing Services (MLS);
Client contacts;
Municipal contacts;
MIRR data bases for First Nations holdings and status; and
CITZ’s Single Inventory System for Crown Land holdings.
It should be noted that the site assessment activity did not include a public solicitation for available land (e.g.: request for proposals); however, direct and discrete consultation with individual land owners was required to identify non-publicly available sites.
Using the above data sources, 34 sites were identified including the existing site. The 33 potentially suitable alternative sites are provided below.

9.0 Pricing The estimate has been priced at current rates taking into account the size, location and nature of the project.The unit rates utilized are considered competitive for a project of this type, bid under a stipulated lump sumform of tender in an open market, with a minimum of five (5) bids, supported by the requisite number of subcontractors.
The estimate allows for labour, material, equipment and other input costs at current rates and levels ofproductivity. It does not take into account extraordinary market conditions, where bidders may be few andmay include in their tenders’ disproportionate contingencies and profit margins.
10.0 Risk Mitigation BTY Group recommends that the Owner, Project Manager and Design Team carefully review this document,including exclusions, inclusions and assumptions, contingencies, escalation and mark ups. If the project is overbudget, or if there are unresolved budgeting issues, alternative systems/schemes should be evaluated beforeproceeding into the next design phase.
Requests for modifications of any apparent errors or omissions to this document must be made to BTY Groupwithin ten (10) days of receipt of this estimate. Otherwise, it will be understood that the contents have beenconcurred with and accepted.
It is recommended that BTY Group design and propose a cost management framework for implementation.This framework would require that a series of further estimates be undertaken at key design stage milestonesand a final update estimate be produced which is representative of the completed tender documents, projectdelivery model and schedule. The final updated estimate will address changes and additions to the documents,as well as addenda issued during the bidding process. BTY Group is unable to reconcile bid results to anyestimate not produced from bid documents including all addenda.
11.0 Contingencies 11.1 Design Contingency
A design contingency of Fifteen Percent (15%) has been included in the estimate to cover modifications to theprogram, drawings and specifications during the design.
11.2 Construction Contingency
A contingency of Five Percent (5%) has been included in the estimate for changes occurring during theconstruction period of the project. This amount may be expended due to site conditions or if there aremodifications to the drawings and specifications.
