## Description
TfGM are testing the market for a new Content Management System contract to potentially take over from the current contract that they have in place for this service.
TfGM has a range of websites and mobile apps whose content is managed by a single CMS. The type of content ranges from rich content pages, mixing text, images, video and downloadable content, to micro-content such as the labels on form fields, and navigation menu links.  
The main features of the CMS which we use are:
•	Headless architecture: separating content from presentation, content is delivered via APIs and consumed by our front end websites and app. 
•	Content modelling: creating custom, composable and reusable content types.
•	Media management: upload and manage image, video and documents.
•	Content editing: user friendly interface for editing content.
•	Content preview: see how content will look before it goes live.
•	Versioning: track changes and enable content editors to revert to earlier versions of content. 
•	Environment management: test and production environments which can be connected to our test and production front end environments. 
•	Developer tools: to make integration and automation easy.
This is likely to be a 3+1+1 contract term so a max term of 5 years in the extension is taken up.
The current contract ends in March 2026 so any system that is implemented would need to be up and running before this date.
