Replacement of CMS (Content Management System) with a Digital Experience Platform
Notice Description
Tenders are being invited for the supply, installation and configuration of a replacement of a current CMS (Content Management System). The University is seeking a "Digital Experience Platform" through a SaaS cloud based service to reduce the burden on IT while supporting needs of staff and students. USW would like to migrate sites by the end of March 2022. Managing the University web services is a highly labour-intensive process that is currently fragmented across many sub domains and administrative teams. It is anticipated that the new system will provide a highly self-service publishing capability for content managers and owners which will allow full integration of all required services and better support future design changes as we evaluate the needs of our staff and students.
Lot Information
Provision of a SaaS (Software as a Service) 'Digital Experience Platform'
The University is seeking to invest in the digital experience it provides current and prospective students via its website and as such is seeking to ensure content owners and managers have appropriate tools and services. Therefore, this tender is split into three separate but very closely related lots. These are: Lot 1 - Provision of a SaaS (Software as a Service) 'Digital Experience Platform' (4-6yrs) - (This Lot 1) Lot 2 - Full migration of existing sites to selected 'Digital Experience Platform' Lot 3 - UX Design & Development Service for the selected 'Digital Experience Platform' A tenderer may apply for just one, two, or all three lots of the tender and the University may choose separate suppliers for all three services. Where a tenderer intends to supply more than one of the services as a hard condition of their tender this must be clearly stated. Regardless of this, tenderers must separately detail each service and additionally provide the benefits of awarding them more than one of the required services. If benefits include service cost discounts of any kind, these must be clearly detailed on the quotations provided at the point of submission of the tender. While a single supplier may be preferable for several reasons, the University is happy to consider 'specialist services' for both the website migration and ongoing user experience design and development services. USW would prefer to migrate sites by the end of March 2022.
Renewal: Option to extend for further 12 month periods up to six years in total.
