The contract period is initially 5 years with a potential extension of up to 10 years. The procurement method is through a Competitive Procedure with Negotiation, and the tender deadline is December 29, 2023. The buying organisation, Ofsted, is based in Manchester, England, and the industry category is Software package and information systems. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses to provide a Regulatory Case Management Solution to Ofsted. Potential suppliers, especially in the software and information systems industry, are suitable for this tender. The contract value amounts to GBP 400,000 initially, with potential for further growth through contract extensions. Ofsted emphasises the importance of data and insights to promote high standards of care and act on risks to keep children safe, indicating a focus on quality and innovation in the procurement process. ## Notice The Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills (Ofsted) is pleased to invite you to submit a formal tender submission to become Ofsted's Regulatory Case Management Solution(RCMS) supplier. Ofsted has previously published a Prior Information Notice relating to this requirement: Publication reference: 2023/S 000-014981 We are seeking to procure a Regulatory Case Management Solution (RCMS) that enables us to be an effective right touch regulator and force for improvement, always making best use of data and insights to promote high standards of care and act on risk to keep children safer. Having completed pre-market engagement, we are considering both a configurable platform or a finished commercial off-the-shelf product. The Contract Term will be for an initial 5-year period with the option to extend for up to a further 10 years subject to the agreement of both parties. The option to extend the contract will be solely at Ofsted's discretion and will be subject to satisfactory supplier performance, government approval and availability of funding. Potential Suppliers should not make any assumption that Ofsted will exercise its discretion to extend the contract for any specific period (for example, for 5 years at a time) or at all. The 5-year contract period will include an initial "partnering" phase followed by a design phase, which will both be used to determine whether Ofsted wishes to continue with the remaining term of the contract or activate a pause or contract break. Should Ofsted wish to continue beyond these initial phases, a subsequent build, configuration and implementation phase will precede the commencement of the live service. We are carrying out this exercise using the Competitive Procedure with Negotiation process. Ofsted reserves the right to: - award this contract on the basis of the initial tender without negotiation - negotiate in successive stages in order to reduce the number of tenders to be negotiated by applying the award criteria specified in the ITT. Tenders or requests to participate must be submitted electronically via https://www.delta-esourcing.com/respond/54837SEYB6 Please note: We would like suppliers to indicate to Ofsted the scope of their offer against our requirements and how much this will cost over the full contract term. The PS400k contract value figure is an indicative cost for the described initial partnering phase only. The PS400k contract value figure should in no way be interpreted as an accurate estimation of the full value of contract at this stage.
