Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Tyne Coast College is seeking one supplier for an integrated HR and payroll software solution together with managed payroll services. The requirement covers a time-accounting or human-resources software package, payroll management and personnel and payroll support. The selected supplier will provide the technology and ongoing service needed to manage the college’s HR and payroll activities. The buying organisation is Tyne Coast College, based at South Shields College in South Shields, England. Delivery is associated with the college’s South Shields location, with the procurement listing coverage across the United Kingdom and other wider locations. This is a services requirement rather than a purchase of physical goods or construction work. It may suit software providers, payroll bureaux and specialist HR technology businesses able to deliver both a platform and an outsourced payroll service through one supplier.

The process has reached tender: Tyne Coast College invited offers through an open procedure. The tender deadline set by the buyer was 1 September 2026 at 10:00 BST. The contract period is 1 January 2027 to 31 March 2032, giving a term of just over five years. The estimated total procurement value is £571,667 including the stated currency of GBP. A single supplier is sought for the combined HR and payroll software and managed payroll services requirement. The tender is classified primarily as services, with related classifications for payroll management and personnel and payroll services. The opportunity is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The tender title and description direct suppliers to the tender pack for the full requirements and bidding arrangements.

This opportunity suits a supplier that can combine dependable HR and payroll software with a managed payroll operation, rather than offering only one element. Relevant capability includes implementing and supporting HR systems, maintaining accurate employee and payroll data, processing payroll reliably, and providing responsive service to a further-education college. Providers should be able to manage the full service over a multi-year contract, including implementation, routine operation, user support, security and ongoing system maintenance. Payroll bureaux with established software, HR technology companies with managed-service capability, and partnerships able to provide both areas may be well placed to compete. The procurement is expressly suitable for SMEs, so specialist providers with sufficient operational resilience, customer support capacity and experience delivering integrated HR and payroll services should consider it.
