Source to Contract System

This procurement is for a Source-to-Contract System. The Source-to-Contract System will be used to manage our procurement pipelines, sourcing activities, to manage a large proportion of our contracts, and identify and realise commercial savings and benefits. It may also be used for strategic supplier relationship management.

The system will form the lynchpin for the rest of the commercial systems suite and as such will be required to interface directly with the systems procured under the other lots creating 'one-version of the truth' and providing data and information for operational and strategic decision making whilst minimising double-keying.
