The Campaign has been largely digital in nature due to the large geographic coverage of the Partner Organisations relative to the budget. We believe the on-going campaign will be digital but it does not exclusively have to be so.

We are therefore seeking an agency that has necessary digital experience and can provide wider integrated communications experience as media channels are not defined. A critical part of the campaign is evaluation.

Agencies will therefore be expected to consider evaluation within the overall proposal and budget. Maintenance of the websites and portal. 4.1.

It is expected that the successful agency will maintain the website and private portal and will ensure that they are accessible and up and running at all times. Maintenance work should be planned and carried out at the least disruptive time to our website visitors. 4.2.

In addition - with a budget of up to £10K per year allocated from the overall contractual budget, the agency will host, manage and develop the Innovation Children's Services website and portal, including editorial and content upload at pre-agreed intervals throughout the year.
