Exams and Assignments (E&A) Solution

Descriptions

The Open University (OU) are tendering for an Exams and Assignments (E&A) solution to be delivered as Software as a Service (Saas). The solution will enable students to submit assignments electronically during their studies and for the assignments to be checked and marked off and online, with feedback provided to the student. The OU require all the functionality in one solution to provide a continuity of experience for both students and markers. There is also a future requirement for students to be able to sit exams online and faculties to be able to create exam question papers within the online environment for both online and offline use. The project will also seek to develop marking of exam scripts electronically. Implementation services as well as ongoing support and maintenance service for the software are also required. The contract is for an initial period of 5 years and may be extended by the OU for further periods up to a maximum of 15 years in total at its discretion.
