Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Bradford Metropolitan District Council is currently in the planning stage of the "ERP Market Engagement" procurement process, focusing on IT services, specifically software packages and information systems. This initiative aims to review and potentially replace the current SAP ERP system, which supports the Council's finance, HR, payroll, and procurement functions. The total contract value is estimated at £750,000, and the engagement end date is set for 15th May 2019. All activities are to be conducted in accordance with the Public Procurement Regulations 2015, and further details can be found on YorTender.

This opportunity presents significant potential for IT service providers, especially those specialising in ERP systems and software development. Businesses that can offer innovative solutions to modernise back-office operations and reduce ongoing IT service costs, particularly those experienced in public sector procurement, will be well-positioned to compete. As Bradford seeks to adapt to evolving organisational needs, suppliers that demonstrate capability in transformation and integration will find themselves at a competitive advantage.

Notice Information

Notice Title

ERP Market Engagement

Notice Description

City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council (the Council's) back office functions of Finance, HR, Payroll and Procurement are supported by a SAP system that has been in place since 2006. The current SAP solution has approximately 2000 professional/semi professional users and an additional 4000 employee self service users. The annual IT Services cost of supporting the solution is significant. In a context where the Council has seen significant reductions in funding levels and requires a system that meets the changing needs of the organisation, a decision was taken to review the Council's current ERP solution. The review was supported by Gartner to identify the current SAP roadmap, define and quantify transformation opportunities, detail the processes supported by the current SAP Solution and the future business requirements. The Council will undertake a competitive procurement conducted in accordance with the Public Procurement Regulations 2015 (PPR's), the timetable for this is yet to be determined. The tender opportunity will be advertised in accordance with the PPR's and will be available via YorTender. Full details of this market engagement exercise are available on www.yortender.co.uk reference DN394444.
