The tender, titled "BU Website Content Management Design and Implementation Partner," falls under the industry category of World wide web (www) site design services and advertising/marketing services. The procurement process is currently at the Planning stage. The deadline for submissions is set for February 2, 2024, with a contract period running from April 15, 2024, to April 14, 2034. The minimum contract value is £0.01, with a total value of £1,000,000. The procurement method used is an Open procedure above the threshold. This tender by Bournemouth University offers business growth opportunities for companies specialising in website design, development, and maintenance services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate. Businesses based in the United Kingdom, as well as overseas territories and Europe, are eligible to apply. As winners of the contract would be involved in a long-term maintenance agreement, companies with a focus on iterative development and enhancements would be well-suited to compete for this opportunity. ## Notice BU requires an implementation partner to commence the design and build of its corporate website, with an ongoing maintenance contract. This will involve rebuilding the site, which is currently managed on Drupal 7, on Squiz Digital Experience Platform (DXP), a platform BU has already acquired through a separate tender. The project will involve building a site with multiple integrations (our Student Records system, SITS; our research and staff database; our CRM, Microsoft Dynamics; and our digital asset management system, Bynder). The scope of the project includes some redesign work, to focus on areas such as the site's navigation, key landing pages, and a number of core components. The ongoing maintenance contract post-launch will include a roadmap for iterative developments and enhancements.
