Aquila Learning is looking to procure a number of suppliers to support delivery of software development services.

We are anticipating appointing up to 2 suppliers to deliver this support.

We are seeking this support to deliver a software development project for our existing ALaRMS Training Management Software.

Bidders potentially may be called for a clarification interview.

We expect 90% of time be spent on direct business support and 10% on related administration.
