## Summary

The Sea Fish Industry Authority is currently seeking tenders for the project titled "Kingfisher Offshore Hazard News", aimed at developing a system for the collection and management of offshore hazard information for the fishing industry. This initiative falls within the IT services sector, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, and Internet support, classified under CPV code 72000000. The procurement process is at the 'Tender' stage, with a submission deadline set for September 7, 2018. The contract is anticipated to commence on October 17, 2018, and will run until March 31, 2019. The tender allows delivery to a wide range of locations, including various territories within the UK and internationally, with a total budget of £60,000.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those with expertise in software development and database management systems. Companies that can provide solutions for effective communication and information dissemination via mobile applications, websites, and social media will be particularly well-suited to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the tender explicitly mentions suitability for such organisations, highlighting the potential for growth within the sector by addressing the needs of the UK fishing industry.

## Notice

The purpose of the project is to design and deliver a system capable of collecting, storing, managing and the electronic supply of 'offshore hazard news' to the fishing industry. Central elements to this include a website, application, email/text delivery and third party website support (feed of information). The key objectives and expectations of the project are laid out in section 3 of the Requirements Document. This provides a high level view of the key requirements, including: - integration and compliance with our current IT infrastructure; - easy entry and management of news/notices within a professional database management system; - be capable of proficiently disseminating vital safety news/notices to the UK fishing industry (e.g. website, text, email, app); - have ability to push news to select pages within two existing websites; - have exceptional sharing capabilities for social media; - display/map positions of offshore news via online maps (ESRI solution preferred); and - exceptional ease of use - most importantly for the end user, but also for Seafish staff. More details on the requirements of this project can be found in the attachments.
