## Summary

The procurement process involves Scottish Natural Heritage seeking a ready-made Digital Asset Management system to centralise their extensive media data, including videos, images, and documents. This procurement, classified under the services category, commenced with a tender initiated under an open procedure. Key dates include the tender submission deadline, which was set for 19th June 2018, and the contract was awarded shortly thereafter, on 26th September 2018, with a contract value of £137,070.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), specialising in digital asset management solutions and environmental services. Companies that can offer scalable systems meeting strict metadata and records management standards while ensuring secure sharing capabilities would be ideally placed to compete for similar contracts. Engaging with Scottish Natural Heritage can enhance business visibility in the public sector concerning environmental protection services.

## Notice

We aim to host all our rich media data in one location. We are looking for a ready made Digital Asset Management product which complies with our records management lifecycle, have enforced metadata standards and be able to share internally and externally in a secure and controlled manner with anyone with an internet capability that has a requirement to view or use our data. We have a large amount of data (video, images, PDF's etc.) which are too voluminous for traditional storage and delivery around our infrastructure and currently stored on network-attached storage. Examples of this would include external Planning Applications (400MB PDF documents), Sea Bed multimedia (4.5 GB files of video footage) and hundreds of thousands of photographic images, ranging from a few MB in size up to 80-90MB (although the average would be around 8MB).
