Description

Our website is built in Umbraco 7, and this is coming to end-of-life (EOL) in
September 2023. We wish to procure a new contract to either upgrade our
website in Umbraco or to secure an alternative platform solution.

We are therefore looking at two options in this Invitation to Tender (ITT):
• Option 1: Upgrade from Umbraco 7 to Umbraco 10LTS as our website
content management system, including content migration, and to provide
continued support including any future Umbraco upgrades as part this of
this agreement.

• Option 2: Rebuild website using alternative software-as-a-service (SaaS)
solution with content migration included and to provide continued support,
including hosting and any maintenance and updates as necessary.

We are considering taking the opportunity to re-design our website using either
of the above options, if cost-effective. We know that over 70% of our website
users view the site on mobile devices, so it is extremely important to us that our
website is mobile-first
