Description

The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) is soliciting proposals to contract a single contractor to provide 40 user licenses for a Software as a Service (SaaS) subscription-based interface design and prototyping tool. This tool will support the creation, modification, and collaboration of CRA digital content, including static and interactive designs for intranet, secure portal, and Canada.ca pages. The current tools lack seamless collaboration features, so the new solution should enable project team members to have view, comment, and edit roles with direct feedback within design files, improving sharing, collaboration, efficiency, and version control. The contract duration is 12 months with options to extend up to 5 additional years, and includes options to acquire additional user licenses.
