Specialist Resources required to support Covid Vaccine Booking System and Child Health System
Notice Description
The Authority requires external specialist resources to complete the implementation of the Oracle platform upgrade, which both the Covid Vaccine Booking System and Child Health System are built upon. Upgrading to a supported version is both critical and mandatory and must be completed before the current version becomes end of life on 31st March 2022.
Lot Information
Lot 1
The Authority has identified that Oracle support on the existing Oracle platform, which the Covid Vaccine booking system and the Child Health system, which registers and schedules immunisations, are built upon, becomes end of life on 31st March 2022. Upgrading to a supported version of the Oracle Platform which is the underpinning technology is both critical and mandatory to ensure that the vaccination programme is able to operate and take on the new challenges ahead. As internal resources have been diverted to support the Covid-19 Vaccine requirements it has been agreed at an executive level that the upgrade and associated packages of work to support the vaccine programme need to be sourced and delivered from a third-party supplier.
Options: Additional work-packages may be called off as and when required but will be subject to Authority approval. The expenditure against this contract will be robustly managed and a close working relationship with the stakeholders will be developed to ensure that the call offs under this Contract are minimised.
Procurement Information
The Authority uses Oracle to deliver a number of its critical systems such as the Covid Vaccine booking system and the Child Health system, which registers and schedules immunisations. The Oracle upgrade required as part of the initial work-package is urgent and needs to be completed by 22nd March 2022. The Authority does not currently have the internal Oracle knowledge and expertise to deliver this requirement and as a result it was agreed that to ensure the upgrade was delivered at pace and within the necessary timescales, a the third-party provider would be engaged to provide their specialist Oracle resources. The utilisation of a third-party also enables the DHCW Team to continue working on other critical projects, such as Covid Vaccine developments. The third party supplier will provide the planning and management of the upgrade implementation and will deploy a team to deliver this activity and future activity, as opposed to the provision of a technical resource only. This gives the Authority greater flexibility and continuity to manage ongoing resource constraints. These resources are essential to support the delivery of the urgent Oracle upgrade required.

The additional skill and capacity can then be called-off efficiently as and when required and applied to the DHCW Data team. (WA Ref:118033)",
