Summary of the contracting process

Imperial War Museums (IWM), located in London, has recently completed an open tender procurement process for the provision of training materials aimed at enhancing accessibility for digital volunteers as part of their Accessible Pasts, Equitable Futures project. The procurement process culminated in an award notice on 11th November 2024, with the contract slated to run from 14th November 2024 to 31st May 2025. The project, classified under the Education and Training Services industry, seeks a disability consultant to create accessible training materials for digital museum items. The project has received a budget allocation of between £11,000 and £13,000 (including VAT), and Imperial War Museums has awarded the contract to Direct Access Consultancy Limited.

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) focusing on education, social services, and training can leverage this opportunity to gain recognition and build a portfolio with a reputable institution like IWM.

Notice Title

GB-Lambeth: AWARD NOTICE - Equitable Futures Disability Consultant Trainer

Notice Description

IWM is looking for a disability consultant to create training materials for c.40 digital volunteers on our Accessible Pasts, Equitable Futures project. The consultant will work with the project lead to identify possible training opportunities and ways of creating accessible training for remote volunteers. The goal of this part of the project is to trial using digital volunteers to create accessibility information about a collection of 200 digital museum items. This tender is going out to ask a company/individual to create training materials for volunteers who will produce alt-text, long description, transcription, audio description, and other narrative descriptions of IWM collections. We will be using Zooniverse as a platform for this trial, although we are currently planning to keep the trial private, only using IWM volunteers. This is a funded project with a budget range of between PS11k-PS13k (inc. VAT). Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
