Notice Title

Digital Growth Hub - Website Development - AWARD

Notice Description

The Growth Hub, by providing ambitious Gloucestershire SMEs with fully funded independent and impartial business support, aim to empower these businesses to grow the Gloucestershire economy and to increase the number of jobs in the county. The Website Development supplier will be called upon to ensure that both the front-end and back-end changes made as a result of the implementation of new third-party solutions are integrated effectively, efficiently, robustly and securely with the existing technical architecture of the Growth Hub website and CRM systems. The Website Development supplier will be a key member of the delivery team of the project and they will be called upon to attend project planning sessions, project review meetings and daily stand ups to ensure project progress. It is anticipated that the delivery of the identified new features will be sequential, rather than running concurrently, although there may be some overlap in delivery. Consequently, the Website Development supplier would be called upon on a part time basis, rather than full time, i.e. perhaps three days a week for four months, rather than five days a week for two months. The requirements for the works are a combination of user requests based upon the functionality of the existing website and the capabilities of the new features being procured for integration with the website. These new features are a Company Performance Benchmark Index, SME Business Evolution Index and a Procurement Portal. The user stories for delivery will be defined and prioritised during the course of the project, which will be run in fortnightly sprints, adhering to Agile Software Development practices. Whilst the exact requirements for the website development supplier to implement cannot yet be fully documented, the chosen supplier must have experience of the following: - Responsive website builds - Amazon Web Services configuration and management - API integration - Drupal - JavaScript - Email management solutions - Deployment server builds
