Display Tender DSD040890 
This page displays the details of a tender. See the detailed help in each section for specific information.

The Department of State Development, Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation (DSD-AAR) seeks Information and Communications Technology (ICT) development services to develop, implement and maintain a comprehensive Aboriginal cultural heritage information management system. 

It seeks a system that integrates geospatial, database information and services into a solution accessible via an online portal. 

The solution will need to meet the current needs of the agency as well as future needs which have been introduced by recent amendments to the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1988.

A review of the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Register and Information System (ACHRIS) developed by Aboriginal Victoria and adapted by the Department of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Partnerships (DATSIP) Queensland was undertaken by DSD-AAR in November 2016.   The study identified an 85% fit of the ACHRIS system with DSD-AAR’s heritage information system requirements. 

The study resulted in the articulation of high level requirements of the future system, sufficient to inform an accurate design proposal and quotation by a third party.

Three scoping documents are attached to this plan:

* DSD-AAR Current and Future Requirements (Attachment 1)

* DSD-AAR Gap Analysis (Attachment 2)

* DSD-AAR Use Cases (Attachment 3)

Tender parties have two options:

1. tender for the full development, implementation and maintenance of a comprehensive cultural heritage information system based on DSD-AAR’s Current and Future Requirements; or

2. custom development of the ACHRIS based on the DSD-AAR Gap Analysis of ACHRIS and DSD-AAR’s Current and Future Requirements.
