## Summary

The procurement process titled "UK SBS IT150075 Implementation of a Flexitime Solution" is conducted by UK Shared Business Services Limited. This project falls under the IT services industry, focusing on consulting, software development, and internet support. The contract location spans two sites in the South West region of the United Kingdom, specifically Liverpool and Southampton. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender period ended on 29 October 2015, with the contract period starting on 9 November 2015 and set to conclude on 8 November 2018. The total contract value is estimated at £22,422.60.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialised in IT services, software development, and office computing solutions. Competitors should focus on delivering innovative flexitime recording solutions that comply with the NOC's requirements for scalability and self-service functionality. Companies that excel in supporting administrative efficiencies and have a flexible approach to implementing additional systems could be well positioned to engage in future contracts stemming from this procurement.

## Notice

The National Oceanography Centre (NOC) requires a flexitime recording solution to replace the current system that will go out of support this calendar year. The NOC is located over two sites (Liverpool & Southampton) and require one system that can be hosted and administered at one site but operates over both sites. Each site will require a clocking terminal placed strategically within each building initially, however there may be a future requirement to add additional terminals in the Southampton site, therefore a quote regarding the installation of additional terminals at a future date following implementation is required as well as a response to the initial request. The system should be based on a self-service model where employees have the ability to update their own clocking records with line manager approval added, reducing the central administration to creating new starters, amending core employee information, bulk updates and exception reporting.
