## Summary

The Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council is currently inviting tenders for the design, implementation, and hosting of a new microsite and intranet site for the Sandwell Children's Trust. The project, titled "Quotation for the Design, Implement & Host a New Microsite & Intranet Site," is classified under information technology services, with an estimated contract value of £10,000. This contract is set to begin on 27 November 2017, lasting for a minimum of 12 months, with the potential for extension up to a maximum of three years. The closing date for submissions is 14 November 2017 at 15:00hrs, with responses required to be submitted via the Sandwell MBC In-tend Supplier Portal.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those focused on internet and intranet software development. Companies with experience in designing and hosting online platforms would be well-positioned to compete for this contract, especially given the need for standalone sites that do not associate with Sandwell Council’s branding. As the project involves a public body transitioning to a trust structure, interested firms should be prepared for collaborative engagement with both Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council and the Sandwell Children’s Trust as part of the service delivery process.
