This project, funded by the European Regional Development Fund, has a total value of £120,000, with an estimated minimum contract value of £90,000. The procurement stage is currently open for this single tender action, with the deadline for written responses set for 27th October 2020. The project is classified under software package and information systems, specifically requiring expertise in Drupal web development to transition from Drupal 7 to Drupal 9. The contract period is anticipated to commence on 23rd November 2020 and will continue until 31st March 2023. This tender presents significant opportunities for web development agencies, particularly those with proven proficiency in Drupal and experience in digital transformation projects. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) would be especially well-suited to compete, given the inclusive nature of the tender process. The work will not only enhance the online presence of Cycling UK but will also contribute to a broader strategy aimed at promoting cycling-friendly businesses across the UK, thereby supporting local economies and sustainable tourism initiatives. ## Notice Cycling UK is seeking an agency to redevelop our Cyclists Welcome website, as part of the EXPERIENCE project. Cycling UK is a membership charity who have championed the cause of cycling for more than 140 years. For 125 years this was as the Cyclists Touring Club (CTC) and from 2012 as Cycling UK. They currently have around 71,000 members and 8,000 volunteers with a diverse range of stakeholders including activists, educators, employers, community groups and the wider cycling community to connect, equip and facilitate the cycling movement. Cyclists Welcome (https://www.cyclistswelcome.co.uk/) has existed since the Cyclists' Touring Club was formed in 1878, initially as a paper guidebook recommending businesses which welcome cyclists, and later developing into a website listing accommodation, cafes, cycle suppliers and attractions. Cyclists across the UK have contributed knowledge of businesses and routes, and Cycling UK has a history of developing and promoting routes and county guides. We require a Drupal experienced web agency as this project involves a transformation of the current site from Drupal 7 into Drupal 9 alongside Cycling UK's wider digital transformation. The agency would need to demonstrate an understanding of the specific functionality of Drupal 9 in terms of risks, challenges and opportunities for Cycling UK's upgrade to Drupal 9. Cycling UK is one of fourteen partners collaborating on EXPERIENCE, a four-year tourism project across six pilot regions in England and France (Norfolk, Kent, Cornwall, Compiegne, Morlaix and Pas-De-Calais), running to June 2023. The EUR23.3 million project is funded by the European Regional Development Fund through the Interreg France (Channel) England Programme and will deliver an innovative, sustainable and year-round tourism strategy, by developing sustainable tourism products, equipping local businesses to market themselves to generate 20 million new off-season visitors and delivering sustainable economic growth across the Channel region by June 2023. As part of the EXPERIENCE project, Cyclists Welcome will be updated and improved to support the Cycle Hubs and Cycle Friendly Places programme. It will provide a comprehensive and user friendly directory of businesses, and a platform for businesses to apply for the Cycle Friendly Places accreditation and access benefits such as training and advice. Initially launching in the project regions (Norfolk, Kent, Cornwall), the accreditation and directory will be maintained beyond the project lifetime as part of Cycling UK's heritage, supporting businesses across the UK to better attract cycling customers. Please read the Request for Proposal for details of how to apply and key deadlines.
