This procurement falls under the IT services and software categories and is classified as an open procedure, with a submission deadline set for 19th October 2018. The evaluation will consider the suppliers' experience and pricing, with contracts potentially awarded for immediate and subsequent requirements beginning from 21st October 2018, and lasting for one year until 21st October 2019. Businesses seeking to participate must deliver their bids by the stipulated deadline and ensure their proposals remain valid for 30 days thereafter. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those with proven experience in Oracle E-Business Suite development and local government projects. Companies that excel in financial software development, as well as those offering HCM solutions with relevant past performances, would be well-suited to compete.
