The project is located in the United Kingdom and aims to modernise vocational learning through augmented reality technology. The open procurement method allows for a wide range of suppliers to submit tenders. The tender period ends on 12 July 2021, with the contract expected to start on 2 August 2021 and run until 31 December 2021. The anticipated value of the project is between £50,000 and £60,000. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in educational technology and software development. Companies that can deliver innovative augmented reality solutions tailored to vocational learning will be well positioned to compete for this contract. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, as the procurement is designed to support their involvement in this growing sector. It is a chance for businesses to contribute to enhancing educational outcomes and to expand their portfolio within the public procurement market. ## Notice OVERVIEW The technology will be extremely useful for initial assessment purposes. It will allow learners' starting points to be established more accurately. Better informed initial assessment will allow learners baselines to be used to individualise learning and facilitate effective stretch and challenge. The use of the Augmented Reality to increase the range of fully functioning scenarios that learners can be exposed to will further stretch their learning and increase the likelihood of 'high grade' outcomes in practical assessments. The technology will allow teachers to provide learners with better feedback and will help learners to be ready for assessment sooner. It will produce better outcomes and increased value added. The impact of the project will be measured in terms of staff and learner feedback. This will include an assessment of the improved rate of skills development, stretching scenarios and ultimately timely and improved grades in practical assessments. PROPOED SCOPE The project will produce software that will allow teachers to develop Augmented Reality environments that can be used in vocational learning. The environments will allow learners to become familiar with practical skills and prepare them for physical skills development in due course. Summative assessment results will show the learners to be more skilled due to their exposure to varying scenarios that simulating in a 'real-life' scenario may not otherwise allow due to health and safet... constraints, fall backs will be implemented to ensure a high level of user experience. Learners will not require any special web browser or app to view the materials that teachers have created. Industry standard browsers will work with the software that will be developed. The learners' will be able to access the AR experiences from standard websites. Alternatively, the AR will be accessible by scanning QR codes. Features: * Multiple learners at any one time 'practicing/ developing' prior to the real-life scenario. * The learners can develop practical skills from home. * Skills can be developed in the workplace where the range of practical equipment or animals aren't necessarily available. * Learners can widen their experience. * Learners will be able to access the AR from, PC. Tablet, Phone, Mac, etc. AR is not as immersive as VR. The idea of Augmented Reality is to add to our current real-life view. In other words, to "augment" the experience. AR-based gadgets are cheaper and more accessible than VR devices. It will be possible to separate the AR technology and use it on PCs, laptops, tablets and smart phones, independently from headsets and similar wearables. The AR software will be compatible with current systems and will be able to be plugged into external LMS systems. Further, the software will be compatible with AR materials already produced and available to the teacher's institutions. Hosting/Support and VAT all must be included within the budget ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/db40d379-23dc-4f5c-8cf1-4c852f7ca851 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Jun 2021 | | Submission deadline | 12 Jul 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Aug 2021 - 31 Dec 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £60,000 | | 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 | LAND BASED LEARNING LTD | | Locality | NORTHAMPTON | | Post town | Northampton | | Postcode | NN1 1SY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF2 Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire | | ITL 3 | TLF24 West Northamptonshire | | Local authority | West Northamptonshire | | Electoral ward | Castle | | Westminster constituency | Northampton North | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems ### Codes - 48100000 - Industry specific software package ## Release History - 23 Jun 2021 at 08:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/db40d379-23dc-4f5c-8cf1-4c852f7ca851 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/db40d379-23dc-4f5c-8cf1-4c852f7ca851 23rd June 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JUN162219 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.landex.org.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
