The reasons for the decision are:
Provider ‘Project Simply’ were appointed to deliver an
online interactive timeline tool for victims of Crime. This online
web tool will enable victims of crime to access and easily browse a
set of videos and supplementary information depicting the criminal
justice system and will be designed to help them better understand
the process of coming forward and reporting a crime.
As part of this process, a set of videos were commissioned
separately to provide a visual demonstration of the criminal
justice during 2019-2022. This element of the project was
significantly delayed due to the covid19 pandemic.
During 2023, a number of subject matter experts were utilised to
review the content of the videos to check for reflection of current
working practices and identify potential gaps. Following this
process, a number of alterations were suggested. As such, it has
been required to make post-production edits to the video content in
order to bring information up to date with 2024.
As Project Simply are designing the wireframes and web content
around the videos, as they have the capability and capacity to
undertake the edits, they are also best placed to lead this work in
order that the project isn’t delayed, or it accrues
significant additional cost.
