The Heritage Hub Project seeks to maximise the value of information for our internal and external users. Extensive research has found that our users love our information but often struggle to find and understand it. Access to our data is spread across a large number of sites and hosted in a number of back-end systems making it difficult to find all that we hold on any given historic place or subject. The data we hold is not easily searched from any single location, and it is difficult to search and navigate, with the same place or subject often called different names. Heritage Hub will be a user-centred project, focusing on joining and presenting all of our information in one place, in a way that is easy to use. The Digital Experience Platform will allow us to bring many of our services together, increase access and provide users (internal and external) an end-to-end journey in one place. It is not expected that these back-end systems will be replaced within the scope of this work.
 Heritage Hub is not simply a technology solution. We are looking to transform the way our people, customers and citizens access the myriad of data sets we have available and to transform how people access HES digitally. We are looking for a partner who will help us develop this enhanced experience and implement the technology to support Heritage Hub.

Further Guidance
 The new Tender Submission Date is 11 April 2022 12:00. A week's extension has been put in place.
 Commercial Confidentiality
 Public Contracts Scotland Tender Questions
 Tenderers should be aware of the guidance on Questions published on Public Contracts Scotland (PCS) in relation to the tender :
 “you should avoid including any commercially sensitive or specific information regarding your organisation in your question”
 PCS will not allow the buyer to amend, redact or anonymise the information contained within the Question submitted by the Tenderer. Through the procurement principles of fairness and openness all Questions and Answers are shared with all of the tenderers.
 There is an option within PCS to discard the question and return to the supplier to remove the confidential information. However due to the volume of questions submitted we cannot provide a guarantee for this work around.
 The Supplier Journey website provided by the Scottish Government provides guidance on tendering for suppliers :
 Tenders | Supplier Journey
 Post Tender Submission Commercial Confidentiality
 We refer tenderers to the Invitation to Tender, page 36, 3.22 : Confidentiality and Freedom of Information Scotland Act (FOISA)
 “If you consider that if any of the information is commercially confidential please provide details, explaining in (broad terms) what harm might result from disclosure and or / publication.”
 Data Breach Liability
 SPPA are aware this is an evolving matter. In terms of the contract the liability for breach of data protection law is not an open ended liability for the Service Provider. Instead, the Service Provider’s liability is limited to the costs, claims, damages or expenses (including administrative fines) incurred by SPPA or for which it may be liable as a result of the Default of the Service Provider. There is, for example, the potential for the Purchaser to incur fines for breaches of data protection law and liability to pay compensation to data subjects. The Purchaser may also incur other costs in handling the fall-out from the breach such as recovering data. If a specific monetary cap was included, SPPA would be responsible for any loss incurred in excess of the cap. As the liability will have been incurred as a result of the Service Provider’s Default, SPPA should not be expected to bear this risk. The Service Provider is instead best placed to manage this risk.

minimum: Minimum average turnover GBP 5 Million per annum.
