Description

Southway Housing Trust has taken the decision to review our website and associated services, with a view to addressing any problems currently experienced and implementing systems and services that meet our current and emerging web requirements.

We are looking to work with a single supplier to develop the initial specification, then develop and deliver the live website.

The site should facilitate channel shift, through delivery of first class online services that our customers will want to use on a regular and ongoing basis, and portray a professional image of Southway. The core site functionality must be enhanced to make the site more interactive. The site must also comply with any relevant regulations and best practice guidelines, and provide secure storage of and access to confidential data and transactional data.

The supplier will be expected to facilitate a methodology for authorised Southway staff to edit and maintain specific areas of the site and its content whilst maintaining consistent styling throughout, by means of appropriate release controls.

Southway will own all intellectual property rights to all content and imagery on the website solution.

PRICING

Southway is required by the Contracts Finder site to enter a 'lowest/actual price' for the procurement. £20,000 is very much a rough guide to the lowest price we might expect in a tender. It is not a fixed cost and we are open-minded about the quotes we might receive.

Bidders are expected to provide a full estimate for stage one and a guide price for stage two (1.1.7. of ITT 02 - Outline Requirements). Please refer to section 4.3 of ITT 02 - Outline Requirements for information about our cost criteria.
