If this is an opportunity which may be of interest to you, in the first instance please email by 5pm on December 5th, 2016 to register your interest. A legislation drafting and amending tool is required for use by the House of Lords, the House of Commons, the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel, the Scottish Parliament, the Scottish Government’s Parliamentary Council Office and The National Archives. It should provide the means for these bodies, and for other identified bodies, to prepare, review, amend and publish primary and secondary legislation. While there is significant consistency for the functional requirements of the tool, the workflow for each legislation type is different and the final tool must be flexible to accommodate these variations. The potential procurement would include: • Agile development of the existing beta version of the tool to deliver the additional drafting and amending functionality to enable the transition of the service to live; • Business as usual management of the web based legislative drafting, amending and publishing service, including technical support and providing a help desk and support for drafters of legislation and parliamentary clerks often to very tight timeframes; • Ongoing agile development services to further develop tools and services throughout the live phase in order to meet new and ongoing business requirements. We would expect suppliers to have expertise in the following areas: XML modelling and development, browser-based XML authoring and editing, web application development, software security design and development, database design and development, RESTful API development, testing, user interface design, release management and agile methodology. You may find it useful to look at the technology choices factsheet developed for the tool: [legislation.gov.uk](http://www.legislation.gov.uk/pdfs/projects/technology-choices-factsheet.pdf) It is anticipated that the legislation drafting and amending tool would transition to live for Scottish Bills towards the end of 2017, with roll out to UK Bills and Statutory Instruments (including Scottish Statutory Instruments) following on.
