Description

Cambridge City Council currently uses a Content Management System (CMS) to provide its main website and the Corn Exchange site (the Council intranet site does not currently use a CMS). After reviewing these arrangements the council has decided to replace the current system with the Open Source Drupal CMS

The successful contractor will be required to implement, customise and develop a Drupal CMS for the Council’s public and internal websites. This will include hosting of the public sites (main website and Corn Exchange website) with an option price for the hosting of the intranet site, and ongoing support/ development of the system. The contract duration will cover the initial implementation, customisation and development work plus a further four years of hosting, maintenance, support and ongoing development.

The procurement process is a one-stage open tender.

In order to provide tenderers with a very general indication of the anticipated value of the contract, the Council is anticipating bids in the broad range of:-
£30,000 - £50,000 for core implementation, customisation and development ; and
£10,000 - £15,000 per annum for hosting, maintenance and support.
However these guidance figures will have no bearing on the evaluation process and are simply to help give an indication to the market of the broad anticipated scale of this requirement.

The Invitation to tender document is available for download from the Cambridge City Council website at the following link:-

As the tender is offered as a downloadable document (from the Cambridge City Council website) and in order to ensure that the Council can inform all tenderers of answers to questions posed by other tenderers (before the closing date), please email the contact officer (below) if you intend to or may submit a tender.
