This Request for Proposals (the “RFP”) is an invitation by the Government of Bermuda (the “Government”) to prospective proponents to submit proposals for Government Mobile Application for Alert Notifications.
The Bermuda Department of Communications (DC) is seeking to implement an application that will increase the ability of the Government to; quickly inform the public about important news, and urgent notifications in real-time using a user-friendly mobile application.
The app will allow notifications to be pushed to users’ devices based on certain notification categories the user can turn on and off from within the app. This should include school notifications, disruption of governmental services, emergency weather notifications, bus service updates, public discussion forums, etc. All notifications will be posted on a central system and pushed to users’ devices immediately after them are posted.
