Notice Information

Notice Title

Market Testing Document for Software Design & Development Services

Notice Description

We require software design & development services to support us with building a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) of an engagement platform. We expect the MVP build to be structured around 3 x 4-week sprints where each sprint incorporates User Acceptance Testing (UAT) to fix bugs; and focus groups are run to obtain feedback and refine the user experience. The ability to create separate logins and profiles for three different user groups; enable sharing of data, tracking of specific outcomes and time against projects via a project dashboard; along with a private chat room, referrals and notifications system are some of the core features of our MVP." The potential bidders need to provide full pricing and features list based on the information in this request and this will then feed into the final design and tender stage.
