If you can provide a software with functionality to raise purchase requisitions/orders, goods receive, pay invoices and provide analytics, please send the following details to procurement@biglotteryfund.org.uk: 1) Company Name 2) Key Contact Name 3) Key Contact Telephone 4) Key Contact Email 5) A Website URL where we can obtain further information on your products/services 6) Indicate whether your products/services integrate with SUN Finance systems 7) Indicate what e-tendering platforms you integrate with (e.g., BIP, Bravo Solution, etc) Please note that promotional and sales material should not be submitted at this stage and will be disregarded. Following on from gaining a better understanding of the products available and the providers, the Big Lottery Fund will look to go to the market more formally through a competitive contract notice.
