GBSIoT wishes to build and develop a new digital platform to engage, inspire and support young people in particular, but not exclusively, to engage with, access and progress into, the exciting range of careers, apprenticeship and education opportunities available to them across the Advanced Manufacturing and Engineering, or Digital professions across the Birmingham and Solihull locality. The platform needs to be live in time for a March 2023 delivery and work will not commence before the end October 2022. Taking account of key specialisms and to ensure all proposals can be considered the requirement has been broken into two lots as follows: Lot 1: Content creation (for platform and to inform marketing strategy) Lot 2: Platform development
Content creation for the new STEM based digital platform. Imperative that content must clearly and effectively target the right populous and be compatible with the Platform (lot 2)Delivery required by 31 March 2023. Collaborative working with GBS IoT, the discovery phase partner (procured separately) and the platform developer tendered under Lot 2. This requirement is part of a larger GBSIoT project. As such the total budget for the development period ending 31.03.23 cannot be exceeded. An indicative budget of £200k inclusive of VAT has been allocated for the content creation and platform development in the initial period. It is expected that the split between Lot 1 and Lot 2 will be approx. 50:50. In the event that the proposed solutions exceed the indicative guide budget the GBSIoT would still actively encourage a tender response to enable further dialogue to take place (subject to a full assessment of tendered responses and overall budget performance).
