## Summary

The Slough Borough Council is engaging in early market exploration for the Childrens and Education Management Information System Project. This project involves assessing available software solutions in the education sector and may lead to a new procurement process. The engagement period ends on September 30, 2022. Interested suppliers are expected to submit expressions of interest by contacting Craig Lorne at craig.lorne@slough.gov.uk. The Council is located in Slough, England, and the procurement is classified under educational software packages with a CPV code of 48190000.

This opportunity is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) interested in providing educational software solutions. Suppliers who engage with the Council during the consultation phase may have a chance to participate in a future procurement process. The engagement process involves various types of meetings scheduled for September 2022, potentially through face-to-face, group, or virtual settings. Suppliers who wish to participate in any future competition are advised to register on the Council's In-Tend portal to stay updated on the procurement progress and requirements.

## Notice

Slough Borough Council (SBC) seeks early market engagement with a view to exploring the education and childrens software market. The Council is currently using Capita One. The MIS contract is currently on a rolling basis and will be extended further until a new contract is in place. As part of this consultation SBC want to engage with providers to understand the software and functionality available within the market which meet its needs in achieving efficiency in both statutory and non statutory processes. Following early engagement, SBC will make a decision about how they wished to proceed in either solely retaining the current provider, or to commence an appropriate procurement. Suppliers are requested to submit an expression of interest to the Council. The Council will then determine appropriate engagement, which may be via face to face meetings, group meetings, or virtual meetings, which shall take place during September 2022. In submitting their expression of interest, suppliers are requested to submit relevant market material. Such material shall not be used in any procurement but may be used to support the determination of what model of engagement is required with a supplier. Suppliers should note that not submitting an expression of interest does not effect their ability to enter or succeed in any subsequent competition. Please submit your expression of interest via craig.lorne@slough.gov.uk. Any competition is highly likely to be undertaken using the Council's In-Tend portal. Suppliers are therefore encouraged to register at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/sesharedservices/aspx/Home if they are not already.
