Time accounting or human resources software package

Tender description

Please note this is a prior information notice and tender documentation is not available yet. This procurement is intended to establish a framework agreement compromising a variety of ‘off-the-shelf’ software products that will enable customers to digitise their human resources service and transform their workforce. To express an interest: (a) go to www.eastmidstenders.org; (b) register; (c) search for tender opportunity ‘650_20’; (d) express an interest. Lot structure of the framework is yet to be defined. ESPO has established a commercial trading company, ESPO Trading Ltd, whose target clients are third sector organisations such as national and local charities, public sector mutual organisations and other organisations involved in the delivery of services to or for the public sector. The successful supplier may be asked to enter into an additional separate framework agreement (the second framework) with ESPO Trading Ltd on materially similar terms to that found in the tender pack to be entered into by ESPO itself. Any second framework agreement will be a purely commercial agreement and will, for the avoidance of doubt, not be governed by the Public Contract Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. ESPO Trading Ltd may enter into the second framework agreement with the successful supplier and make it available to third sector clients who themselves are not required to follow the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 or other public procurement legislation. Accordingly, this is provided for bidders' information only.
