Lot number: 1
Title of the lot: Lot 1 - Analysis & Training
Short description:
UCD has an ongoing need for website and social network analysis and training to enhance performance and impact of investment. The need is, at a broad level to understand the overall context of how UCD websites and social networks sit within a national and international model of best practice and at a deeper level to understand the connections and linkages across UCD websites and social networks. Service providers should have extensive experience in providing comprehensive web analysis and strategies for large organisations with complex web and social media needs. It will also be important to have experience of smaller scale projects which reflect the diverse range of activities in a university environment.

Title of the lot: Lot 3 - Web Design & Development - General and Parallels Plesk Environment
Short description:
UCD has ongoing requirements to design, develop and support websites outside of the standard university CMS environment (Lot 2). These requirements mainly relate to projects which have a need for niche website services such as a specific CMS (e.g. Wordpress, Drupal etc.) or may require the use of scripting languages or a database driven (e.g. MySQL) backend. In order to meet these requirements UCD proposes to implement a service hosted on a Parallels Plesk platform.
