## Summary

HEFCE is seeking proposals for the provision of corporate systems transformation software, specifically cloud-based business management software that encompasses functionalities for Finance, Payroll, and HR. The contract is valued at £1,160,000, with a minimum requirement of £800,000, aimed at supporting up to 400 employees. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender period concluded on 7th April 2017, while the contract will commence on 22nd July 2017 and last until 21st June 2018. The relevant location for this procurement is South Gloucestershire, United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in enterprise resource planning and financial systems software. Companies with expertise in developing cloud-based solutions capable of providing software maintenance, upgrades, and regulatory compliance will find themselves well-positioned to compete. Additionally, firms offering integration capabilities with existing solutions for finance and human resources will be advantageous, while large-scale suppliers that can handle complex software deliveries will also be ideal candidates for this contract.

## Notice

HEFCE is seeking to procure subscription licences for cloud based business management software that will provide functionality for Finance, Payroll and HR as well as meeting a range of technical or non-functional requirements. The licence will also provide HEFCE with regular upgrades and updates, ongoing software maintenance, product defect fixes and regulation compliance updates. In addition to this the licence will provide HEFCE with access to a cloud based platform with backups, data storage, operating system, database, provisioning, security, data centre and disaster recovery. HEFCE requires the licence to cover up to 400 employees. This tender does not include the provision of implementation services and the ongoing support and maintenance of the implemented solution, i.e. those aspects of the solution that are configurations unique to HEFCE and not part of the core product. These services will be procured separately.
