Summary of the contracting process

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) is currently in the planning stage for a tender titled "Provision of an HR Software Package". This procurement is aimed at the human resources software industry and is based in Maidenhead, United Kingdom. Key dates include an engagement end date of 20 April 2018, after which a formal contract notice will be issued.
