## Summary

Leicester City Council is initiating a pre-market engagement process for their project titled "Online Booking, E-learning & Management Solution". This procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with the buying organisation aiming to centralise the management of various bookings and replace existing e-learning and management systems. The engagement period ends on 23rd April 2019, and the project falls under the software package and information systems category, with a budget set at £175,000. The delivery addresses are located in the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in software development and educational technology. Companies that can offer comprehensive solutions covering all aspects of the project, or specialize in specific components/modules required by the Council, would be particularly well-suited to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the Council is keen to understand the market capabilities before proceeding to a formal tender process.

## Notice

Leicester City Council (the Council) is undertaking a transformation programme to centralise the management of various types of bookings, a replacement e-learning product and a management system to support this. The Council is at an early stage in development of its proposals but prior to formulating any formal procurement opportunity, seeks input from the market as to what might be the most potentially attractive way of packaging and scoping a future procurement opportunity. The Council is interested in understanding the market, and whether vendors can supply all (our preferred option) or one of the components / modules we are looking to replace before commencing a formal tender process.
