This initiative falls within the IT software package industry category and spans locations across the United Kingdom and overseas territories.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Improvements to the National Trails Website

Notice Description

Natural England (NE) are expanding the NationalTrailBreaks.com website to include all essential information from the Nationaltrail.co.uk website. The aims are to adapt the newer NationalTrailBreaks.com website so that it can include all of the essential information and functionality. The work has been planned to minimise the need for day to day management of the site, and to reduce the number of enquiries. Therefore a medium term requirement to ensure continued provision of the National Trail website until 31st March 2021 earliest. Due to likely future changes in strategic management of National Trails this is not seen as an on-going arrangement. Additional information: Please note that Defra procurement uses an E-tendering system for Procurement activities. This is currently provided by Bravo Solutions. To access appropriate tendering and contractual documents, please access the E-Tendering portal at https://defra.bravosolution.co.uk", ensuring that your registration includes "Defra".
