The procurement is in the tender stage, with an open procedure inviting bids by 24th February 2025. The contract is valued at £70,000 and will span from 16th April 2025 to 31st July 2026. The project location is in the East Midlands, United Kingdom, and the procurement method is open to relevant businesses, particularly those capable of developing educational and multimedia software solutions. This tender offers a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in the development of VR applications and educational software. Companies specializing in multimedia software development and training solutions will find this contract highly beneficial as it involves creating software that can integrate 360 videos and images for diverse training purposes. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) particularly stand to gain from this opportunity, as NTU encourages their participation. The project also opens the door for businesses to form long-term collaborations with the academic sector, potentially leading to further innovative projects in VR training applications. ## Notice Nottingham Trent University (NTU) are seeking to support their academics to create VR apps. Accordingly, we are seeking 4 outputs: (1) software that will allow our academics to combine 360 videos and still images, text slides, questions, and feedback into working VR apps, (2) an example app created using this software that is suitable for submission to the Meta Horizon store for Quest headsets, (3) an example app created via the software that can be uploaded to Pico headsets for face-to-face group training sessions, (4) a piece of control software that will allow headsets to be linked during f2f training sessions, such that all trainees watch the same videos at the same time on individual headsets. The content of the apps will related to driver safety assessment and training (e.g., hazard perception). NTU will provide all driving-related content for inclusion in outputs 2 and 3, however the overall software (outputs 1 and 4) should be content agnostic and accept different 360 video/still content for the creation of future apps (e.g., we may want to create a VR app that uses our 360-video to train paramedics in emergency situations, or train bar staff in conflict resolution situations, etc.). ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a175a221-e5af-40d3-87e6-1a00e45a78ed | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 24 Jan 2025 | | Submission deadline | 24 Feb 2025 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 15 Apr 2025 - 31 Jul 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £70,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NOTTINGHAM TRENT UNIVERSITY (NTU) | | Locality | NOTTINGHAM | | Post town | Nottingham | | Postcode | NG1 4FQ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF1 Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire | | ITL 3 | TLF14 Nottingham | | Local authority | Nottingham | | Electoral ward | St. Ann's | | Westminster constituency | Nottingham East | | Delivery location | TLF East Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 48190000 - Educational software package - 48312000 - Electronic publishing software package - 48520000 - Multimedia software package - 48983000 - Development software package - 72212190 - Educational software development services - 72212520 - Multimedia software development services - 72212931 - Training software development services ## Release History - 24 Jan 2025 at 12:10 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a175a221-e5af-40d3-87e6-1a00e45a78ed ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a175a221-e5af-40d3-87e6-1a00e45a78ed 24th January 2025 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=89271&B=NTU Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/128806 User / Company ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
