Published
Description
Summary of the work UKEF is looking for a Supplier to undertake a content-focused Alpha. It will explore and establish how we can meet the identified user needs of two UKEF audience groups: Large Corporates and Overseas Buyers on the great.gov.uk platform. Expected Contract Length Three (3) months (maximum of eight (8) weeks for initial SoW for the Alpha) Latest start date Monday 17 September 2018 Budget Range Maximum of £50,000 (excluding VAT) Why the Work is Being Done UKEF's overall objective is to increase take up of its services and products and to better compete with other Export Credit Agencies (ECAs) to bring supply chain demand to the UK. This content-focused Alpha aims to establish an improved digital presence for UKEF on the great.gov.uk platform. It builds on Discovery research, which identified the user needs of two key UKEF audience groups: Large Corporates and Overseas Buyers. Problem to Be Solved Our Discovery increased our level of understanding of the user needs and interaction preferences of Large Corporates and Overseas Buyers. We know they need better information and guidance on UKEF and the process of working with us. Rather than transactional services, there is a user need for online tools. The successful supplier will work with UKEF to deliver this Alpha and establish a road-map for Beta. Who Are the Users For this Alpha our users are Large Corporates and Overseas Buyers. They need to understand the process for obtaining finance and insurance support from UKEF. They need help on understanding eligibility criteria for our products and services and, once a project is live, they need to understand where they are in the process. There is also evidence of a need for certain online tools that would allow users to self-serve specific information.
