    Brief

    The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) is seeking a supplier to conduct discovery and alpha phase work for expanding the MyMCA platform to serve Ship Owners, Operators, and Third-Party Ship Personnel and Management Organisations. Background: MyMCA currently supports Seafarers applying for Certificates of Competency and integrates with Short Course Providers and MCA-approved doctors. This procurement extends the platform to address business processes for maritime companies. Scope of Work: The supplier will conduct detailed user research to understand customer and internal user pain points, identify manual processes suitable for digitisation, and develop solutions covering survey booking and scheduling, certificate management and viewing, and online payment processing. The work will include mapping current and future user journeys, developing iterative prototypes, and testing these with real users during the alpha phase. All outputs will undergo Government Digital Service (GDS) assessments before integration into the MyMCA platform during the beta phase. This project represents Stage 2 of the Department of Health and Social Care's Digital Outcomes and Specialists (DOS 5) framework process, following Stage 1 completion in August 2023.
