Arts Access Scheme - "All-In" Digital Membership System

Description

Arts Council England intends to commission a Digital Membership System (DMS), as part of a programme of work to develop a UK-wide access scheme, All In, which will improve access, usability, and inclusion for D/deaf, disabled and neurodivergent people to creative and cultural activity across the UK. The DMS will allow customers to sign up to All In and create a profile giving details of their access requirements. Organisations will also subscribe via the DMS and create profiles for their access provisions and performances. The database of organisations and their provisions will be used to create access directories to aid customers to find events and activities that meet their requirements. Lot 1: Arts Council England intends to commission a Digital Membership System (DMS), as part of a programme of work to develop a UK-wide access scheme, All In, which will improve access, usability, and inclusion for D/deaf, disabled and neurodivergent people to creative and cultural activity across the UK. All In will offer practical tools that will help organisations offer better access provisions in a more efficient manner, underpinned by industry backed access standards for the sector as well as training and support to meet those standards. It will also provide audience insights for partners and participating venues. The DMS will be one of the cornerstones of All In, as a tool which facilitates the connection between creative and cultural organisations and their customers. The DMS will allow customers to sign up to All In and create a profile giving details of their access requirements. Organisations will also subscribe via the DMS and create profiles for their access provisions and performances. The database of organisations and their provisions will be used to create access directories to aid customers to find events and activities that meet their requirements. An organisation’s subscription will also give them access to the database of customers and their requirements. The DMS will therefore be a tool which allows customers to quickly and easily share their requirements with any arts or cultural organisation they wish to attend, either through tech integrations with their existing ticketing and CRM software or by manual look up. We are open to different approaches to delivering a DMS either being procured from a consortium or a single multi-disciplined supplier, with the development work occurring within the UK.
