To satisfy the project objectives the University of St Andrews is seeking to procure and implement a modern and highly functional software system(s). The solution(s) offered may be on-premise or SaaS based solutions. Although the University has a SaaS first policy, offerings will be considered against their life cycle cost, functional, support, ease of use and ease of implementation capabilities. If the offering is SaaS based a suitable cloud storage service must also be offered. These systems are predicted to be in service for a period of around 10 years. Therefore, a suitable support and maintenance package must also be offered. The implementation of new systems to satisfy these objectives is seen as a complicated task. Therefore, the University of St Andrews is also seeking appropriate implementation service consultancy to lead the configuration and implementation of the new system(s). The proposed solution should provide functionality in and/or facilitate the following area: - Strategic financial planning and forecasting (I&E, Balance Sheet & cashflow, scenario planning & modelling) - Budget management (virements, additional budget workflow) - Budget monitoring at all levels (university / school & unit / individual budget holder) - Accounts Receivable (tuition fee income generation is out-with scope) - Debt management - Non-invoiced income (e.g. cash sales, online e-sales, grants & donations) - Supplier contract and procurement management - Purchasing (PO / non-PO / Corporate Cards) - Staff expenses - Accounts Payable (suppliers, students & visitors) - Inventory Management - Capital Project Management - Pre-award research grant application & costing management - Post-award research grant management - Endowment & donation management - Other funded project management - Key reconciliations including bank reconciliations - Accounting adjustments (journals, recurring journals, accruals, prepayments etc) - Statutory account preparation (Financial Statements, HESA, TrAC, HEBCI, ONS, US GAAP etc) - Tax return preparation (VAT, Corporation tax, Intrastat, EC Sales list if required etc) - Service desk The solution will be required to integrate with multiple specialist operational systems.

"reviewDetails": "The University of St Andrews will incorporate a minimum of 10 calendar day standstill period at the point of information on the award of the contract being communicated to tenderers. This period allows unsuccessful tenderers to seek further debriefing from the contracting authority before the contract is entered into. Applicants have 2 working days from the notification of the award decision to request additional debriefing and that information has to be provided a minimum of 3 working days before the expiry of the standstill period. Such additional information should be requested from The University of St Andrews. If an appeal regarding the award of contract has not been successfully resolved The Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2012 provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rule to take action in the Sheriff Court or Court of Session. The anticipated review body in such cases would be: Dundee Sheriff Court 6 West Bell Street Dundee DD1 9AD Telephone: +44 1382 229 961 Anyone bringing court proceedings against the University of St Andrews must inform the University of St Andrews in advance of the alleged breach and its intention to bring proceedings. Any such action must be brought within 15 days of the date on which a decision is sent to them or published to challenge that decision. Proceedings seeking an ineffectiveness order must be brought within 30 days of the publication of the contract award notice in the OJEU, or 30 days from the date of a decision letter to all tenderers concerned, and any candidates concerned, containing a summary of the reason for the recipient being unsuccessful, otherwise 6 months from the date of entering into the contract or concluding the framework agreement. Where a contract has not been entered into the Court may, by interim order, suspend the procurement procedure. The court may also set aside a decision or actions taken by the University or order it to amend and document; and/or award damages. However, by express requirement the court may decide not to grant an interim order when the negative consequences of such an order are likely to outweigh the benefits, having regard to a number of considerations. If the contract has been entered into the Court may, depending on the nature of the breach: make an ineffectiveness order; impose a financial penalty; shorten the duration of the contract; make any other order considered appropriate to address the consequences of ineffectiveness or shortening the duration or the contract; award damages."
