GWE Business West Ltd, trading as Business West (BW), is one of the most influential business leadership organisations in the UK, representing over 6,000 businesses across our Chamber of Commerce network in Bath, Bristol and Gloucestershire. We operate major publicly-funded programmes providing support for business start-ups, businesses with high growth aspirations and businesses that trade (and wish to trade) internationally.

Business West are seeking an experienced supplier of bespoke software services to develop an application to enable exporters to showcase their products across borders using Augmented Reality (AR). This will be part of a feasibility study under Government's 'levelling up' agenda, focussing on 3 companies (one from each of the following Local Enterprise Partnerships: Cornwall, Heart of the South West and Dorset). The marine sector has been jointly identified by The Great South West LEPS as a priority sector under UK Government's current Levelling-Up Pilot programme. This is an opportunity to be part of a pilot project to develop and test the capabilities of immersive technology and their use in international trade.

The successful tenderer will be experienced in the development of creative and immersive technology, and will work alongside the Business West project team to bring the concept to life. The successful tenderer will demonstrate a successful track record of using AR to showcase products with hi-tech capabilities, and communicating their value to buyers through immersive technology.

The ability for buyers and sellers to interact in different locations simultaneously, and showcase products real-time using Augmented Reality, will be a key feature of the solution. The successful tenderer will therefore be required to develop (or make use of an existing) a server-side framework which will facilitate this. This framework will host the application which enables buyers and sellers to schedule meetings, view product features in AR, highlight special features of the products, and communicate via teleconferencing with sellers in the UK.
