## Summary

South Oxfordshire District Council has undertaken a procurement process to secure a "Human Resources and Payroll Solution", classified under Software package and information systems (CPV 48000000). The contract, titled "HR & Payroll System Procurement," encompasses the procurement of goods, specifically an upgraded HR and Payroll service provided by Zellis UK Limited. The procurement method was limited and did not involve the prior publication of a call for competition, as it was a direct award to the incumbent supplier following extensive pre-market engagement. This initiative aligns with the council's IT strategy and involved a reprocurement through G-Cloud 13. The contract, valued at £506,045, was signed on 30th July 2024 with a delivery region of Oxfordshire (UKJ14).

The procurement provides substantial opportunities for businesses that specialise in HR and payroll software solutions. Companies providing services in talent management, performance management, payroll advisory, and employee wellbeing solutions are particularly well-suited to compete in similar tenders. The requirement for such specialised software packages means that firms operating within the IT and software development sectors can find valuable opportunities to expand their market presence and contribute innovative solutions that meet public sector needs. The successful engagement with the council highlights the potential for significant business growth through public sector contracts.
