This procurement is aimed at the human resources software industry and is based in Maidenhead, United Kingdom. Key dates include an engagement end date of 20 April 2018, after which a formal contract notice will be issued. The CWGC, responsible for commemorating nearly 1.7 million Commonwealth forces who died in the world wars, seeks a unified global HR information system to replace its current fragmented solutions. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses that specialize in HR software solutions, particularly those that can provide systems operating in multiple languages and currencies. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that demonstrate capability in integrating with local payroll providers and delivering robust HR management functionalities would be well-positioned to compete. Companies with prior experience in providing global HRIS systems and analytics tools would find this contract particularly appealing. ## Notice The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) is responsible for the commemoration of almost 1.7million members of the Commonwealth forces who gave their lives in the two world wars.
