Our current mobile contract is up for renewal. We wish to procure a new contract spanning 3 years with the option to review costs and services at year three and then extend to 5 years. Cottsway operate in a very rural area spanning Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire, and Wiltshire with properties in other areas. Our preferred network provider is EE as we have proven experience with their coverage. We will consider other providers, but we won't accept the provider coverage maps as proof of coverage as they don't reflect actual coverage in our core operating area.

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

Currently, Cottsway is utilising MRI's Documotive EDRM system as a document storage solution across various business areas such as Housing, Property Management, Finance, and HR.
However, this system has not been updated for several years, leading to difficulties in effectively managing and maintaining documents in a centralised manner.
Additionally, Cottsway has recently implemented Microsoft Office 365, which has resulted in a shift towards storing and collaborating on documents in SharePoint. Therefore, there has been a fragmentation in the storage of key documents, dispersed across different platforms.
This existing approach is no longer sustainable in meeting the present and future document management requirements of Cottsway.
Cottsway Housing is aiming to achieve the following from this tender exercise:
1. A fit-for-purpose EDMS solution that delivers all essential requirements and as many desirable requirements as possible.
2. To provide a solution that delivers the requirements whilst proving value for money, within a reasonable timeframe.
3. Longevity of the chosen solution, including any future upgrades/updates, and ongoing support.
Additional information:
First stage
For your initial response to the ITT we simply require you to confirm that you can deliver all the essential requirements, confirm the estimated costs and implementation times required to do, and confirm ongoing costs. Furthermore, where desirable requirements can be delivered, please list which of these requirements you are able to deliver as well as the additional costs and timescales to do so.
Second stage
If we invite you to the second stage your response must be presented in the specified format and include all the information requested. Failure to provide all the requested information and / or failure to comply with formatting requirements may subject your offer to disqualification and elimination from consideration for award. Details will be confirmed in the second stage invitation.

We're planning to refresh the laptops in use by staff at the company over the next 1 to 2 years. For this we require 50 laptops initially to replace the most out of date hardware, then will proceed to phase out about another 75 laptops over the course of the following 24 months. We have tested various laptops concluding that, the HP Elite x360 1040 G9 is the most suitable for our staff uses and compatibility with existing desk peripherals. We're initially looking for supply of this model, however we will be willing to accept a model of the same/similar spec on the same line or superseding should this one come to end of life in the future.
