It would support training for council employees and external organisations using the Council’s training services. The expected package includes implementation and configuration, integration with the Council’s Zellis human resources system, user training, and ongoing support and maintenance. The system is intended to manage online and classroom-based learning, including blended events, structured programmes, mandatory training and workplace assessments. Delivery is in Wrexham, Wales. This is a software and information systems requirement, with associated implementation, integration and support services; suppliers should consider the full system lifecycle rather than software licensing alone. This is at the planning stage: the Council has expressed an intention to procure and is undertaking preliminary market engagement, not inviting tenders. It asks suppliers to email an overview of their solution by midday on 22 October 2026. The Council expects a further notice on 1 February 2027. The estimated value is £70,000 excluding VAT (£84,000 including VAT). The planned contract is due to run from 31 May 2027 to 1 May 2029, with an extension provision allowing it to continue until 8 May 2030. One lot is planned, and the procurement is marked as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses. The engagement describes requirements, but does not set out the procurement method or evaluation criteria. The work is best suited to learning-platform suppliers able to deliver a configurable cloud LMS and provide implementation, HR-system integration, training and continuing technical support. A strong fit would include proven compatibility with Zellis and the ability to maintain accurate employee data across one or more organisational and position hierarchies. The Council is looking for flexible dashboards for different audiences, manager views of team learning, graphical management reports and KPI widgets, plus visual tracking of programme progress and mandatory-training compliance. The system should also handle course and competency programmes, certification expiry and renewal reminders, prior-learning records, and manager-led workplace assessments. Suppliers with experience managing classroom and blended seminars and events, as well as e-learning, are well placed to prepare a relevant solution overview. SMEs are considered suitable. ## Notice BACKGROUND Wrexham County Borough Council (WCBC) are looking to engage the market with the potential of procuring a Learning Management System (LMS) to support e-learning training modules, webinars, manager reporting, and course booking requirements for both council employees and external organisations requiring our training services.
