## Summary

Bristol City Council is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process for a "Revenues and Benefits system" within the software and information systems industry category. The engagement end date for this market testing exercise is set for 11 January 2019. The procurement is intended to explore solutions that could integrate with existing systems at the council, and interested parties must register on the ProContract procurement portal to participate.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses that specialise in software solutions, particularly those capable of providing cloud-based, hosted, or integrated services. Companies engaged in delivering financial and IT systems that can work with public sector clients may find this process advantageous. As Bristol City Council is open to a diverse range of proposals, firms with innovative approaches to revenue and benefits systems are encouraged to compete.

## Notice

Bristol City Council ("BCC") is undertaking a Market Testing Exercise in relation to Revenues & Benefits solutions available. This will feed into the development of BCC's ongoing strategy in this area. BCC is open minded as to how an organisation may provide an Revenues & Benefits solution and is willing to consider provision of a system (that may be hosted internally, externally or cloud based) or a service. Any solution will need to integrate into BCC's existing systems, e.g. finance, security, ICT, Active Directory etc. For the avoidance of doubt, this process is for the purpose of conducting a soft market testing exercise, and will not formally begin the procurement or constitute any commitment by BCC to undertake any procurement exercise. If you wish to take part in this Soft Market Testing Exercise, please register to use the ProContract procurement portal: https://procontract.due-north.com/Register. The reference for this project is DN 382135.
