Call for Tender: Development of a logo and a website
The E4 Group (ENQA, EUA, EURASHE and ESU) invites interested parties to file a tender for the development of a logo, document templates and a website for the European Quality Assurance Register in Higher Education (EQAR).
The tender shall be based on the terms of reference below and provide a detailed outline of the services offered, a breakdown of the total costs, references to third-party software, products or services the tenderer intends to use and references to similar services provided by the tenderer previously.
Logo and document templates
The contractor would be expected to produce a logo for the EQAR which would reflect its aims and principles.
The E4 Group would provide the contractor with all information and advice required. The contractor would be expected to produce, based on the logo, a set of templates in a coherent design for the following types of documents:
- Letterhead on standard A4 paper
- Business card
- Website
Website – general
The contractor would be expected to setup a website based on a Content Management System (CMS) that is easy to use for people who have only limited experience in web publishing. It should be based on the website design as described above.
The website and CMS should provide the following core features:
- Managing texts, articles, images, downloadable files, etc
- Full-text search
- Sitemap
- Submission of forms and documents
The website should be flexible and allow future extension of its functionality, as required. A first version of the website, comprising mainly static content, should be launched by 15 December 2007. This first version would only require very basic functionality. Full functionality may be implemented at a later stage.
The tenderer is kindly asked to include an optional bid to also host the website, in case the tenderer offers such service.
Website – database
The contractor would be expected to setup a database of quality assurance agencies (Register) as part of the website.
Data records would consist of simple text and numerical data as well as attached files. The database should provide the following features:
- An easy-to-use administration backend to add, modify and remove records
- A possibility to search the database in different ways
- A possibility to export data in a compatible format, e.g. CSV or Excel

The database should be operational no later than 1 May 2008.
