The purpose of the proposed work is to develop a digital platform constituting the digital home of the BSGN, acting as European one-stop-shop for information and resources relating to opportunities in the commercialisation of human spaceflight and robotic exploration. It shall aim to help to bridge the gap between the science-oriented and capability-driven space sector and the product-driven non-space sectors which could use the space environment to boost their product development. The digital platform is considered key in raising awareness, communicating business opportunities, providing a rich variety of information, promoting success cases, engaging new stakeholders and supporting the development of new user communities. The contractor is expected to develop and design the platform with taking into account the needs of the user community and the objectives of the BSGN. To this end, the contractor is expected to develop a user-driven marketing- and content strategy and to populate the platform with content. The digital platform shall be based on WordPress and will be hosted and operated by ESA. Following the implementation of the digital platform, which shall be developed in under six months, given approval of the Agency, the contractor shall provide support to the digital platform during the operational period from 2020-2023 as part of the website maintenance operations concept which is part of the proposed work.
