What is being bought

Published requirement description

Derry City and Strabane District Council seeks to engage a suitably qualified Audio-Visual (AV) Content Provider to design, produce and install engaging high quality, intuitive and robust AV content for the DNA Museum.

The creative team will consist of the AV Content Provider, Multimedia Guide Developer, Illustrator(s) and Models/Setworks/Physical Interactives Producer/s (who will be appointed as specialist sub-contractors under a lead Fit-Out Works Contractor). Your submission must be submitted via etendersNI, via this CFT. No other method of submissions will be accepted. Please refer to the CfT documents for further detail.
