A space to explore current opportunities
We have a tender for an āe-learningā site. The time is tight, the budget is tight but the client is nice and probably flexible.
Please email felix@wave.coop for more information?
Is this the place for this kind of conversation? Iāll get my coat if not.
Happier to be fully transparent in this thread, if appropriate and doesnāt create unwanted noise for everyone.
Hi Felix,
What kind of system would the client require? Moodle e.t.c
Thanks 
We have some sysadmin / devops capacity for Linux servers configuration via Ansible.
Using this thread for this discussion is fine by me
I just tried to upload the tender pdf but it is not an allowed format

Software Build - University of Brighton
Closing date: 04/06/2018
Location: Brighton
University of Brighton
The current project, āFast early-stage simulator of energy consumption and comfort in buildingsā (FREDS), for the development a web platform for building simulation is funded directly by the University of Brighton and supervised by Prof. Marco Marengo and Dr. Marco Picco.
Project Description: We have a SOFTWARE PLATFORM which provides a fast and simple way to perform building energy simulations and assist with the selection of appropriate building components and systems during early design stages. We offer a complete and accurate evaluation of the energy and comfort performance of a built environment (even in the design phase) considering the climate, the use, the geometry and the materials of the building.
The platform will be based on a simplified building description model. We use the open-source code EnergyPlusTM issued by the US Department of Energy (DoE) and developed protocol and algorithms to quickly deliver complex building performance analyses.
Main system features needs to be developed:
- APIs to connect the frontend to the existing backend
- Interface (Main, Input, Results display, User Registration, User Profile)
- Help Functions
A Detailed Software Requirements Specification document is available if needed.
It is expected the available budget will not be able to cover the development of all the required features, interested companies are therefore asked to provide quotes including the cost to develop each feature separately.
Budget: Looking for quotes - TBD

It would be great to have a chat with you to find out about your ideas for the project and discuss roles responsibilities for doing the proposal and just to get an idea of how we both work and if weād be the right dit to work together on this.

The British Museum are looking to rebuild their website in Drupal or Adobe Enterprise.
We canāt do it but I thought some of CoTech might be interested. Youāll need to be registered on the DO&S framework in order to apply.
If youāre not registered then you might want to consider applying for version 3 of the framework which opens for applications tomorrow.
Cheers, Chris
