Notice Title

REQUEST FOR QUOTATION FOR SUPPORTING VIRTUAL FOREST WEBSITE WORK FOR THE #WM2041 CLIMATE CHANGE PLAN

Notice Description

Requirements from this contract: We are looking for a consultant to work with the WMCA Environment Team to lead on the requirements below. The overall aim of the work will be to develop an online tool, based on the one found here, which will allow residents and organisations to register trees they are planting, and view them on the interactive map. More specifically we would like the website to have the following features: * An overlay on the Virtual Forest map, showing the boundaries of the WMCA's 7 members * Totalizer figure for each authority on map and overall totalizer on main page of website * The ability for individuals and organisations to opt-in to affixing their names and/or company logos to specific trees and tree planting sites * The ability for individuals and organisations to dedicate tree plantings in memoriam of a loved one, including a message and/or picture. * Improved accuracy and reliability of the Virtual Forest map, allowing more accurate viewing of tree plantings. In addition to the mapping, we would also like the website to be able to build in some of these initial functions (but also be able to add new ones as we go forwards): * Opportunities to advertise CSR days and for organisations to attend tree plantings/ host them. * To be able to connect with landowners and householders to provide land/ gardens for tree planting. * To map opportunities for tree planting and spaces available. * A young person's page/ link into schools * Information on how to look after/ care for trees * Opportunity for adopting trees where people may not be able to plant their own * Have an option for corporate sponsorship/ fundraising Technical Specification * It must be built in Umbraco or a CMS that can be integrated into Umbraco. * Also it needs to be built in React. * Also the design needs to follow our guidelines and UI elements that we have already built in Beta * These just make sure that whatever is built can be worked with and adapted internally in the future. A full copy of the Request for Quotation Document is attached. Additional information: Please refer to the attached Request for Quotation document for details of how to respond.
