The provision of a legal case management system

Southend-on-Sea City Council is looking to appoint a suitable Supplier to provide a case management system to support the functionality required by the legal team to manage their day-to-day workload and case management requirements. The system will need to be able to facilitate the transactions needed for all of the required services.

The legal teams in Southend-on-Sea City Council that will use the system cover the following areas within the Council Commercial and regulatory, adult and children's Social Care, Property, Planning, highways and land charges.

The provision of this system is to ensure efficiency and provide an effective process to enable electronic management of case work in the legal team and will ideally be cloud based.

The system will need to provide the legal teams an end-to-end case management system for all legal work. This will include functionality to time record and securely hold data and aid the service to become a predominantly paperless service.

The system will need to provide consistent and standardised best practice work processes, prefilled templates, documentation and automation and enable effective case management from receiving instructions to completing matters. The system will also need to have the ability to pull a wide range of reports for various tasks and processes.
