Notice Information
Notice Title
BBC Bitesize Roblox Experience
Notice Description
Roblox is a free-to-play online game platform and game creation system, which allows users to program games and play games created by other users. With 70.2 million daily active users, it is hugely popular with our younger audiences and provides powerful opportunities for BBC Bitesize to grow brand awareness and audience reach. We believe that establishing an official Roblox presence and producing content on the platform is a necessary and valuable step to take in order to stay relevant, reach a new generation of digitally savvy children, and to allow our audiences to engage and interact in new ways. BBC Bitesize's objective for this game is to introduce Bitesize to a global Roblox audience as a trusted educational brand by developing an experience which supports geography learning through gameplay. We particularly want to reach 11-14-year-olds in the UK and the US. We want to adapt the existing BBC Bitesize Planet Planners game for the Roblox platform. A full description of educational ambitions and deliverables can be found in the Requirements. The BBC is looking to purchase the design and build of a BBC Bitesize experience on Roblox, from a supplier specialising in game design and with experience of educational content, ensuring that all defined objectives and strategic aims are met Additional information: Please register your interest in this project by taking the following steps: 1 - Register your company on the Jaggaer eSourcing portal (this is only required once): 1.1 Go to https://bbc.bravosolution.co.uk 1.2 - Click the link on the login page to register. 1.3 Accept the terms and conditions and click 'Continue'. 1.4 - Enter your correct business and user details. 1.5 - Note the username you chose and click 'Save' when complete. 1.6 - You will shortly receive an email with your temporary password. 2 - Express an interest in the tender: 2.1 - Login to the portal with the username/password. 2.2 - Click the 'PQQs Open to all Suppliers' link. 2.3 - Click on the relevant PQQ to access the content. 2.4 - Click the 'Express Interest' button at the top of the page.
