Summary of the contracting process

Cambridge City Council, along with South Cambridgeshire District Council and Huntingdonshire District Council, is seeking a supplier for a Hosted Financial Management System (FMS) as part of their collaborative procurement process. This initiative falls under the services category and aims to replace existing financial systems with a modern, flexible solution. The tender period ended on 30 November 2015, and the contract is estimated to commence on 1 February 2016, running until 1 February 2021. The procurement method utilised was an open procedure, and the project will unfold in two phases: the first phase comprising system supply and implementation, followed by ongoing support and maintenance for five years post-launch.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses within the software and information systems sector, particularly those that specialise in financial management solutions aiming to secure government contracts. Companies with capabilities in providing flexible, user-friendly financial systems, including ongoing support and hosting, would be particularly well-suited to compete for this project. As the lead authority, Cambridge City Council is looking for commercially attractive proposals that demonstrate innovation and efficiency to enhance the Councils' service delivery capabilities.

Notice Information

Notice Title

HOSTED FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Notice Description

Cambridge City Council (CCC), South Cambridgeshire District Council (SCDC) and Huntingdonshire District Council (HDC) are working together in a number of areas to share both front line and back office services. The Councils have identified the need to use a common Financial Management System (FMS) to enable sharing and to maximise cashable and non-cashable benefits. It has therefore been decided to replace all 3 Councils current financial systems with a modern and flexible system common across the 3 Councils. The system selected and implemented will be externally hosted. It will enable and support the Councils' transformation through the provision of self-service functionality and intuitive enquiry and reporting capabilities. As such, it will be a key driver of change. The project will be split into two phases: PHASE 1 - Supply, configuration, implementation, testing and 'go live'/ handover to the Councils of the fully functioning system. The 'go live'/ handover dates for each Council may be different. PHASE 2 (effective from the 'Go Live' date) - Ongoing hosting, support and maintenance of the system. This Invitation to tender (ITT) is for all 3 Councils who are collaborating together on this procurement project with Cambridge City Council acting as procurement lead authority. Once the preferred tenderer is selected the Councils will award one contract (jointly signed by the 3 councils) to the successful contractor. This invitation to tender thus represents a lucrative opportunity for bidders and the Councils are looking for commercially attractive solutions that reflect the nature of this opportunity. The support and maintenance period (phase 2) will run for five years from the 'go live' date of the final Council system going live. Please note that the contract start and end date are estimated and cannot be relied upon. Bidders proposals will help to form the basis of a realistic contract start and end date.
