Software package and information systems

Tender description

CEF’s Education case management services are currently due to expire at the end of March 2022. This provides the Council with the opportunity to assess what systems the market has to offer in an open and fair way and procure and implement a best-fit system before the contract comes to an end. The scope of this tender encompasses education management (including integration with schools’ software), early years, and SEND case management and children’s education finance management functionality. Along with the core case management systems implementation, there is a fundamental requirement to seamlessly integrate those solutions with OCC’s existing systems for: children’s social care and early help; accounts payable and card payments; geographic information system; contract management and bus passes; and to be able to query/accept feeds from the DfE and Ofsted. This level of integration will provide users across all relevant services the important information they need, whilst reducing the number of different applications that they are required to use, creating improved working dynamics and efficiency. Specific requirements are detailed in the correspondent sections of the ITT documentation. CEF’s Education case management services are currently due to expire at the end of March 2022.
