## Summary

The procurement process for the provision of workforce planning services has been completed by the Crown Commercial Service, based in Liverpool, England. This tender, identified as CCSO22A08, was categorised under the CPV classification for software package and information systems, specifically focusing on various software solutions. It involved a selective procurement method via a call-off from a framework agreement, with the tender period concluding on 18th February 2022. The contract commenced on 1st March 2022 and is set to end on 29th February 2024, with a total contract value of £390,816.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in software development, IT services, and enterprise resource planning solutions. Given the specification for a comprehensive workforce planning data solution, businesses aligned with technology consulting and SaaS offerings would be particularly well-suited to compete. Furthermore, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) may find themselves well-placed to deliver innovative solutions to meet the outlined requirements, fostering a competitive landscape in the industry.

## Notice

The main technology (enterprise resource planning) solution in play to support these activities is a shared instance of Oracle R12 (known as SOP), which has limited functionality around data collection, master data management, data translation/transformation, analysis/insight and reporting. To fill capability gaps, CO People and Places (P&P) bought a SaaS (software as a service) workforce planning data solution in March 2020, as an interim solution until a new ERP system is implemented.
