Summary of the contracting process

The Northern Ireland Housing Executive has initiated an open tender for the development of an HR and Payroll IT system, titled "T1553 – HR and Payroll IT System". This procurement, valued at £3 million, falls under the category of IT services, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, and support. The tender is set in Belfast, with submissions due by 1st September 2021, and involves an implementation period followed by a five-year contract. There is an option for an extension of an additional five years, reflecting the project’s long-term importance in providing a secure, hosted system for the Housing Executive's payroll and human resources needs.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for software development companies and IT service providers that specialise in HR systems, payroll management, and software integration. Businesses with capabilities in developing commercial off-the-shelf solutions, particularly those experienced in delivering secure, scalable IT systems would be well-suited to compete. The project not only promises a substantial contract value but also the potential for substantial follow-on work if the initial implementation is successful, making it an attractive prospect for vendors looking to grow and establish long-term partnerships with public sector entities.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The Housing Executive requires a fully integrated Commercial off-the Shelf (COTS) system for the provision of a secure, hosted HR and Payroll IT system. Full details can be found in the tender documents enclosed with this CFT.

Options: This contract makes provision for an estimated 12 month implementation period. Following successful completion of the implementation period, the initial contract period will begin. The initial contract period will be 60 months. Therefore the total duration of the contract in this notice has been estimated as 72 months. This contract also makes provision to be extended by a further 60 months beyond the initial contract period as outlined in the Conditions of Contract. The estimated contract value provided in this notice is based on the full contract period including implementation and the extension period. Ideally the level of competition should be sufficient to achieve costs significantly lower than our estimates.
