## Summary

Essex County Council (ECC) is currently engaging in a tender process to identify options for a Management Information System (MIS) catered to its Adult Community Learning (ACL) service. The process is at the planning stage, with potential suppliers invited to meet ECC's project team in Chelmsford from 25th to 28th February 2019. Interested parties must express their interest by contacting Paul French by 11th February 2019. This procurement falls under the services category, focusing specifically on software packages and information systems, with a contract period expected to start on 1st July 2020 and run until 30th June 2025. The tender's submission deadline is set for 12th August 2019.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in software development and information systems to enhance their market presence. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-suited to participate, particularly those with experience in developing student management systems. This is a chance for businesses to collaborate with ECC and contribute innovative solutions that meet the specific needs of adult learning management, potentially expanding their portfolios and client base.

## Notice

Essex County Council (ECC) is carrying out a soft market testing exercise to explore potential future options for the provision of a student management information system (MIS) for use by ECC's Adult Community Learning (ACL) service. ECC currently uses a MIS to manage learners, courses, tutors, room bookings, exams, electronic registers, accounting, reporting and analysis. ECC is exploring options ahead of a potential re-procurement of a MIS later this year. Interested suppliers will be invited to attend a meeting with ECC's project team in Chelmsford between Mon 25th and Thurs 28th Feb 2019. The objective of the meeting will be for ECC to understand the market and potential options available, which will help inform the final specification for a procurement process. Further details will be provided to invited suppliers before the meeting. To express interest in this soft market testing exercise, please contact Paul French via email at paul.french@essex.gov.uk by 11th Feb 2019
