## Summary

The University of Northumbria is currently conducting a procurement process under the title "T17/3580 Virtual Engagement and Web Content", which falls within the software package and information systems industry category. The procurement is at the tender stage, with the deadline for submissions set for 11th September 2017. The project aims to engage a supplier who will collaborate closely with the Creative Fuse team to capture and share innovation practices in the North East of England, with a contract period commencing on 25th September 2017 and concluding on 30th September 2018. This is an open procurement process.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, consulting, or digital media. Companies that can offer flexibility and creative solutions in capturing innovation through various social media channels will be particularly well-suited for this project. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, as they can effectively engage in collaborative and dynamic environments alongside the university’s Creative Fuse initiative, driving their own growth while enhancing community-wide innovation awareness.

## Notice

The university are seeking a supplier to work with Northumbria University's Creative Fuse team to capture and share the essence of innovation practice as it happens. We are seeking a supplier who can embed themselves with the team during key innovation events to capture, through illustration and the written word, innovation practices and 'aha-moments' and share these through a wide range of social media platforms and the project website in such a way as to engage a non-innovation minded business audience in order to drive their interest and encourage their engagement with Creative Fuse. The supplier will work closely with the Creative Fuse team who are delivering the Creative Fuse programme at Northumbria University, and other suppliers who are creating case-study films about the project, and evaluating the value and processes of innovation. We anticipate that this will involve approximately 2 days per week for the duration of the contract, although the intensity of activity may vary throughout the contract. This will require a degree of flexibility to enable engagement with key, scheduled project events.
