02/ The brief
What the notice says
Not fully read: this is the notice text; attached documents are not read.
The British Museum wishes to replace its Digital Asset Management System (DAMS), a critical system that stores and distributes images across many systems and departments. It facilitates research and education, enables commercial image sales, and provides material for marketing content. Whilst the DAMS is internal facing it also supplies images to public facing systems, notably the Museum’s online collection database, Collections Online. This procurement includes the following activities:
a) Configuration of a new cloud based DAMS operating on a SaaS basis,
b) Migration of existing assets & metadata from the existing on premises DAMS to the new cloud based DAMS,
c) Integration of the new DAMS with other Museum systems,
d) Ongoing support for the new DAMS.
The estimated total contract value is based on a maximum contract duration of 10 years and assumptions about the volume of data that will be stored in the DAMS over that period so should be treated as being indicative only.
