e-Recruitment Software Solution - Market Testing Exercise

Tender description

The Business Support Centre (BSC) is a provider of shared services, providing support services to Leeds City Council, its immediate partners and beyond. BSC customers include employees within all directorates, schools, a number of colleges and other external organisations. The service ensures the Council meets its statutory requirements with regard to recruitment, PAYE, pensions, employment checks and payment of bills. The recruitment process is also supported by the HR Resources Team who manage the internal redeployment pool. The BSC service currently utilises an e-Recruitment solution (provided by Abacus Ltd) to facilitate the electronic capture of application forms and to offer a web based service for vacancies. We also advertise job vacancies for external partners including schools and charities. The Contract for the current solution is due to expire in 2018. Prior to commencing a formal tender process for a replacement e-Recruitment solution, we are keen to seek information from organisations that may have an interest or expertise in this field - the information will be used to help inform and shape our requirements specification. The responses received will only be used for the purposes of background information which informs our requirements specification and will not be used for selection or award purposes in any tender process. Note: This pre-market engagement is not an invitation to tender or a request for formal expressions of interest. Keywords: portal, career, SaaS, job, recruit
