This tender is classified under IT services, specifically software development and consulting, and is located in Liverpool, UK. The procurement is at the open tender stage, with bids opening on 4th January 2022, and the submission deadline set for the same date at 14:00 GMT. The contract, valued at £220,000, is intended for a duration of three years, with provisions for annual extensions for up to two additional years. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those with expertise in web and mobile application development, as well as those experienced in providing consulting services in the education and training sectors. Companies capable of delivering innovative digital solutions to enhance user engagement and accessibility in apprenticeship services will be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. The shift in digital behaviour resulting from the pandemic further underscores the potential for business growth in this area. ## Notice We are looking to procurement the services for the redevelopment of the existing Liverpool City Region (LCR) Be More apprenticeship website (https://be-more.info) for the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA) as well as the introduction of a mobile application. The pandemic has seen a huge shift in digital behaviours and expectations and the proposed redevelopment is to create a one-stop solution that not just provides a regionalised apprenticeship service but also serves as a city region digital beacon for careers advice and guidance such as progression pathways and local industry relevant information to a wider audience. Presently, as apprenticeships, skills and careers are so closely linked, there is a requirement for these sources of information to be pulled together in one place and delivered in a more aspirational and engaging way. A three year contract with options to extend annually up to a maximum of two years (1+1) (reviewed on an annual basis) will be awarded to the successful supplier. ### Lot Information Lot 1 We are looking to procurement the services for the redevelopment of the existing Liverpool City Region (LCR) Be More apprenticeship website (https://be-more.info) for the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA) as well as the introduction of a mobile application.
