## Summary

Cardiff University has initiated a procurement process for the "HR & Finance Systems Review and Business Transformation" project, classified under services and specifically focusing on systems and technical consultancy. The project is at the Award stage, with a contract recently signed on 16th February 2022, valued at £522,000. The procurement process aims to develop a new technology solution to enhance HR, Finance, and Procurement operations, following an assessment that indicated the Single Solution option as the most beneficial for the university's needs.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the consultancy sector, particularly those with expertise in HR and finance systems integration and transformation. Companies capable of providing innovative technological solutions and consultancy services that align with the university's objectives will find this tender well-suited to their offerings. The competitive landscape indicates a potential to expand business operations through collaboration with public sector clients such as Cardiff University, especially for firms aiming to enhance organisational efficiency and improve service delivery through advanced technology.

## Notice

As part of Recast Transforming Services, in April 2021 University Executive Board approved an initial investment to assess the options and relative benefit cases of introducing a new technology solution for HR, Finance and Procurement.The results of this assessment identified two possible options (namely Single Solution or Best of Breed), but recognises that at an outline level the Single Solution option appears optimal for the University based on both predicted quantitative and qualitative outcomes.Further investment is now required to develop the next stage (Phase 0) of the programme to capture detailed requirements, initiate procurement, confirm the best option for the University, and produce a final business case to prepare for a subsequent implementation phase.
