Our website (www.createconverge.eu) has been developed up to 2019 to reflect the brand and project strategy. We have identified that further development is needed on the website to support our web channel aspirations and evolving research as required for our project results and future operation. As such, all of the new requirements could not be implemented during the original website development and we wish those requirements to be delivered as part of this project. Given the impact of Covid-19 this project also plays an important role in offering a platform for collaboration between creative, digital and technology services and with the multiple sectors they support for applications such as entertainment, marketing, service delivery and training. We note that the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018 has come into force. The legislation encourages public sector websites to be more accessible by requiring that they comply with WCAG 2.1 AA standards. Existing public sector websites had to meet the regulatory standard by September 2019. In summary we are seeking further work on the website and provision of collaboration and sector mapping tools or applications. Ideally we are seeking rapid deployment of these updates, Create Converge is a transnational, North Sea Region project with partners in Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, Sweden and the UK. It is supported by the European Union North Sea Region VB Programme. As such the project was supported to contribute to development and competitiveness of a key economic and cultural sector across the region and for each of the partner countries and regions. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG392588 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 14 Aug 2020 | | Submission deadline | 11 Sep 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £15,000 | | Lots value | £15,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | DUNDEE CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | DUNDEE | | Post town | Dundee | | Postcode | DD1 1NZ | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM0 Eastern Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM03 Angus and Dundee City | | Local authority | Dundee City | | Electoral ward | Maryfield | | Westminster constituency | Dundee Central | | Delivery location | TLM71 Angus and Dundee City | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 72222300 - Information technology services ## Release History - 14 Aug 2020 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG392588 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG392588&idx=1 18th August 2020 - ITT - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG392588&idx=4 18th August 2020 - ITT - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG392588&idx=3 14th August 2020 - Appendix B - Declaration - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG392588&idx=2 14th August 2020 - Appendix A - ESPD - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG392588 Tender for the Provision of an Online Network Platform - Provision of an online network platform ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.dundeecity.gov.uk - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000628114 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=628114 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/sitehelp/help_guides.aspx ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
