This contract falls within the "Tourism, Built Environment, Conservation" industry category and was conducted through an open procurement method. The tender process began on 17th August 2017, with a submission deadline on 14th September 2017, and an award date of 3rd October 2017. The total value of the contract is £25,000, which includes two years of ongoing support for the developed app. This project presents significant opportunities for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) in software development and multimedia content creation.

This should also include the ability to access an agreed selection of the animations offsite using a downloadable marker set for members of the public who are not able to visit the site. Options: Support from developer beyond delivery of app for 2 years to cover updates to ensure compatibility with expected mobile operating system updates. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT298077 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Oct 2017 | | Submission deadline | 14 Sep 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 3 Oct 2017 | | Contract period | 2 Oct 2017 - 23 Mar 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £25,000 | | Lots value | £25,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £25,000 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HISTORIC ENVIRONMENT SCOTLAND | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH9 1SH | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM1 East Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM13 City of Edinburgh | | Local authority | City of Edinburgh | | Electoral ward | Southside/Newington | | Westminster constituency | Edinburgh South | | Delivery location | TLM92 Dumfries and Galloway | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | JAM CREATIVE STUDIOS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 72212911 - Computer game software development services ## Release History - 12 Oct 2017 at 00:00 - Award - PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT298077 - 17 Aug 2017 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG292734 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG292734&idx=1 24th August 2017 - Brief for development of Caerlaverock Castle app - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG292734&idx=4 24th August 2017 - Brief for development of Caerlaverock Castle app Updated to include corrected dates. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG292734&idx=2 17th August 2017 - App wireframe - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG292734&idx=3 17th August 2017 - HES terms and conditions - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG292734 Caerlaverock Castle Augmented Reality Trail App Development - Historic Environment Scotland (HES) Interpretation Unit within the Visitor Experience Team are seeking to commission a multimedia software developer to develop and produce an augmented reality app as part of the interpretative delivery onsite at Caerlaverock Castle plus a further 2 years of support for the app. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT298077 Caerlaverock Castle Augmented Reality Trail App Development - Historic Environment Scotland (HES) Interpretation Unit within the Visitor Experience Team are seeking to commission a multimedia software developer to develop and produce an augmented reality app as part of the interpretative delivery onsite at Caerlaverock Castle plus a further 2 years of support for the app. ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://historicenvironment.scot - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000508437 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
