Dynamic Digital Resilience for Medical and Allied Professions in Health Services (Acronym: DDS-MAP) is a new 30-months project (Feb 2023 – July 2025) funded by the European Commission under EU4Health program which aims to facilitates knowledge and skills training in the mastery of new and emerging digital technologies and their associated challenges among medical and allied professions in health care services. The project also proposes -   

1. to build and deliver a platform of generic learning modules that can be adapted to the needs of multiple disciplines. 

2.  to utilize the benefits of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) for the delivery of content integrated with a centralised learning platform.  

The project will be run by a consortium made up of 15 partners, with the European Association of Service providers for Persons with Disabilities (EASPD) as lead of dissemination. 

1. Tender specification

The DDS-MAP consortium is currently looking for a web design and development professional/agency/graphic designer to create the Project website as well as design the project's visual identity and logo. The website will be the main platform through which users will be able to access different activities, outputs, results, and information of the project.  The provider will also need to produce a coherent visual identity as well as a logo for the project.

The main framework of the website with static content with the designed visual identity should be up and running by April 2023. 

2. Content to be developed 

2.1 Website 

The website must be simple, informative, accessible and interactive. The website should include the possibility to add videos, infographics, e-learning platform integration and be made available in major EU languages. Other features might be requested at a later stage.  

Subject to discussion, the general outline of the website should be as such:  

Homepage  

The homepage will include the header containing the project’s logo and the site’s navigation menu. The menu will be divided in different section header:  

• Home 

• Learning platform 

• Training modules 

• Results 

• Communication 

• Contact 

Each section should have interactive content with graphic visuals and simplified language that make it clear for site users to understand the core message. The contractor should follow the project corporate identity.   

The main page will also have a slider containing highlighted content that will guide users to different tabs. 

Body 

For each of the above-mentioned headers there will be a drop-down menu: 

• Home 

• About the project 

• The Consortium 

• Beneficiaries 

• Timeline 

• Leaflet for dissemination 

• Learning platform 

• About the learning platform 

• Curriculum & Training modules

• News 

• Events 

• Newsletter 

• Contact  

• Contact details 

• Get in touch 

Footer  

The footer will contain the main contact information and the links to social media pages (Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, newsletter). 

2.2 Main features of the website 

The website content and structure should guarantee the following four main features: 

• Be high accessible for users in both web and mobile environment 

• Be aesthetic in terms of design and visual storytelling 

• Be flexible to ensure constant editing of the website 

• Be easy-to-use and update for someone with little website management experience (possibly get access to the back-end page) 

It will be extremely important to ensure these four key characteristics since the website aims to be developed while most of the contents still need to be produced.
