## Summary

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC), based in Leeds, has completed the procurement process for the "Finance Information Consolidation System (FICS)" designed to consolidate DHSC accounting group financial data. The tender, under the industry category of IT services with CPV code 72000000, involved an open procedure above the threshold and concluded its tender period on 31 March 2025, ahead of the contract period starting on 1 April 2025 and ending on 31 March 2028.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for SMEs, particularly those specialising in financial information systems and Oracle software solutions, to provide hosting, support, and potential enhancement services. With a focus on enhancing data collection and reporting capabilities, businesses that offer innovative IT consulting and software development services could find significant growth potential in similar government contracts. The DHSC's commitment to supporting SMEs provides a pathway for burgeoning enterprises to establish credibility in the public sector IT services domain.

## Notice

Financial Information Consolidation System (FICS). The System is built on Oracle Performance Management Enterprise Edition and is used to consolidate DHSC accounting group financial data. As well as the hosting and support requirement, the requirement may also, at the correct time, consider solutions to improve data collection and load from source systems, as well as reporting formats, that could be deployed in future as a bolt on to the existing software, and similarly review methods used to view reports and interrogate data.
