Notice Information

Notice Title

Project Portfolio Management System

Notice Description

The Compound Semiconductor Applications Catapult is new Not for Profit organisation headquartered in South Wales and focused on helping industry exploit advances in CS technologies to make new technologies in a range of sectors a reality. We are here to help the UK economy grow, and we work across the UK with a range of industry sectors from automotive to medical, and from digital communications to aerospace. The Compound Semiconductor Applications Catapult currently has circa 30 Projects in delivery phase with a strong pipeline and is looking to implement a PPM system to manage their Project Management and Resource Management functions. We have a mix of Projects: * Commercial projects - usually short term and initial costing is based on a quote; * Collaborative R&D Projects - normally 2+ years in length and involve a mix of partners where initial costing will have been submitted in a Bid and grant monies awarded; and * Internal Evaluation Model projects - these don't have Project budgets, but do track costs. We require a system that will holistically provide Management Information from the high level initial project plan (bid/ quote stage) through to Project Delivery, showing resource capacity and utilisation, project progress, Status reports and RAG status, Budgetary baselines and forecasts with variances against actuals. There will be approximately 80 licensed users, including 65-70 Resources using the system to enter time against Project work assignments, the rest a mix of Project Managers/ Resource Managers and Executives requiring access to report suite. Integration is required with Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM and potentially with 3rd party HR, Expense and PO approval systems. The system should be accessed via the cloud and/or mobile and tablet Apps. Single sign-on would be a benefit. Implementation after successful tender is expected in late 2021. A total system solution is required, with training and nominated after sales support contact.
