Tender FAQ
Is voice recognition a must for construct 5? Do you only need Cantonese voice recognition?
Answer: Voice recognition is recommended for construct 5. Please prioritise Cantonese voice recognition first. As mentioned in the tender briefing session, please allocate resources evenly across the different assessment tools. For tenderers that are able to incorporate voice recognition into construct 5, please state voice recognition as an optional item in the proposal and price schedule.
Will there be more questions for the test bank in the future?
Answer: Tenderers will be required to provide a solution for the stated requirements mentioned in the tender briefing session. The research team should be able to access the test bank and make modifications through a web portal if deemed necessary.
Timeline of the project? When should the product be completed?
Answer: Please refer to the tender document. The product should be completed by the end of November.
Number of expected users?
Answer: As mentioned in the tender briefing session, the target audience of the mobile app and project website will be P1-P3 students, educational psychologists, parents, and teachers.
