Summary of the contracting process

Norwich University of the Arts has awarded a contract to MHR Global Holdings Limited for the implementation of a new Human Resources Information System (HRIS) as a Software as a Service (SaaS) solution. This procurement process was initiated due to the end-of-life notice on the university's existing HR database. The project falls under the industry category of "Time accounting or human resources software package" (CPV code: 48450000). Located in the UKH region, the procurement method used was a Competitive procedure with negotiation, and the process has now moved to the "Award" stage. The initial core release of the new system is expected to be fully operational by early February 2025, with the entire system scheduled to be switched off by 31st March 2025. The contract, valued at £675,000, was signed on 11th October 2024, and there is an option for several 2-year extensions beyond the original 5-year term.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in HR software solutions to align with Norwich University of the Arts' needs for a new, comprehensive HRIS. Companies with expertise in time accounting and HR software, especially those experienced in delivering SaaS solutions, will find this project aligns well with their capabilities. The project's urgency and the university’s intent to rapidly progress with the selected vendor present an advantageous scenario for businesses looking to expand their portfolio or establish a robust partnership with a public educational institution. Suppliers that demonstrate strong functional and non-functional capabilities, efficient delivery models, and comprehensive service support can position themselves favourably to contend for such future opportunities.
