Description
Tenders are being invited for the supply, installation and configuration of a replacement of a current CMS (Content Management System). The University is seeking a "Digital Experience Platform" through a SaaS cloud based service to reduce the burden on IT while supporting needs of staff and students. USW would like to migrate sites by the end of March 2022. Managing the University web services is a highly labour-intensive process that is currently fragmented across many sub domains and administrative teams. It is anticipated that the new system will provide a highly self-service publishing capability for content managers and owners which will allow full integration of all required services and better support future design changes as we evaluate the needs of our staff and students.
