off-the-shelf solution

We are looking for the supplier to provide an off-the-shelf ready solution, with minimum customisation required. In this manner we would have more confidence that we are procuring a tried and tested solution which will be supported and will evolve throughout its life. This should also shorten the delivery timeframes.

This is not a key business function and as such we are happy to take what is readily available from the market, rather than take the time and effort to scope and develop our own bespoke solution with a supplier.

budget

There is no set budget for this requirement and the bids received will be assessed against each other as stated within the tender documents.

The £172,000 limit is in connection to the EU thresholds. Over this mandated limit we would need to alter the procurement route and undertake a full EU procurement process. Therefore we will be unable to consider any bids which exceed that figure over the proposed three year contract.
