## About this tender

Colchester City Council (the Council) wishes to commission a contractor to develop a Web app to bring together local businesses, shops, retailers other traders (e.g. popup shops, regular and other markets, special events) and members of the public who could be their potential customers, and to connect them all with the idea and process of using an eCargo Bike delivery service to collect and deliver items they have ordered, or for another reason, need moved all across Colchester.

We therefore require as our essential requirement a single web application software program hosted on a web server and accessed through a web browser (rather than installed on user's computer) is acceptable. The application should natively support standard browsers such as Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Safari, operating systems iOS and Windows devices, and automatically tailor the display of the website to the device it is being viewed on. A desirable option would be a supporting mobile app, code and resourcing allowing, however this is not an essential"

Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.

Development and Testing will be completed by 31st May 2025, with go live from 1st June 2025 for 3 years, with the option to extend for up to a further 2 years (1+1), subject to performance.
