- Description
- NPS SERVICEWIDE APP: TECHNICAL CONSULTATION As mobile technology improved, apps became a viable way to supplement functionality provided by NPS.gov for park visitors ¿particularly those who may be in remote locations and lack Internet connectivity. Because creating an app can be expensive and poses technical, usability, and accessibility risks that individual parks were not prepared to negotiate, Harpers Ferry Center (HFC), the NPS center for interpretive media, began experimenting in order to assist parks. Their first apps lead to some consensus on what functionality should be consistently provided, and an ¿app framework ¿ was developed. Currently, there are 16 individual park apps available through Google Play and 19 through iTunes. Usage statistics for these apps are tracked through Google Analytics. Several factors combine to make now the time to evaluate the current app options provided to parks and design a servicewide app that provides baseline functionality for national-level functionality and parks as well as the ability for individual parks to create custom park-specific features in collaboration with HFC. The contractor shall provide technical consultation services to assist the Digital Strategy Division to work with its stakeholders to develop a technical design and implementation plan for a servicewide app with national and modular park-specific content for the National Park Service. This RFP is reserved for Small Business Concerns under NAICS Code 541511 Custom Computer Programming Services. Only small business may respond. All responses must be received by the closing date of this publication in order to be considered by the Government. In preparation of your proposal, please be advised that the resulting contract shall be Fixed Price. The period of performance September 28, 2018 through March 31, 2019.
