Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Riverside College Halton is procuring a finance management software system as a service. The requirement covers supplying the system, implementing it for the college and maintaining it after implementation. This is a financial systems software development and support opportunity, with the system intended for the college’s finance management needs. The buyer is Riverside College Halton, based at Kingsway, Widnes, England. Delivery is associated with postcode WA8 7QQ in Widnes. The procurement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. It is a single-supplier requirement, so the successful business will be responsible for the complete software solution and its ongoing maintenance rather than only one component of the service.

The procurement has reached tender: Riverside College Halton invited suppliers to submit offers through an open procedure. Bids were due by 21 September 2026 at 3:00 pm UK time. The planned contract period runs from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2029. The estimated total value is £200,000. The opportunity is for services and is being run as one supplier requirement rather than as separate lots. Suppliers are expected to provide the full finance management software system, implementation and maintenance package. The published procurement information identifies the open procedure and the submission deadline as the key process requirements for responding businesses.

This opportunity suits a software provider able to deliver a finance management system from initial supply through implementation and continuing maintenance. Strong candidates are likely to have experience developing or configuring financial systems, moving them into operational use and supporting users throughout a multi-year service period. The requirement favours a supplier with enough delivery capacity to take overall responsibility for the system, rather than a business offering only consultancy, isolated development work or short-term technical support. It is expressly suitable for SMEs, making it relevant to established specialist software firms and smaller providers with demonstrable finance-sector systems capability, reliable implementation resources and the means to provide sustained maintenance for a college customer.
