Description

City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council (the Council's) back office functions of Finance, HR, Payroll and Procurement are supported by a SAP system that has been in place since 2006. The current SAP solution has approximately 2000 professional/semi professional users and an additional 4000 employee self service users. The annual IT Services cost of supporting the solution is significant.

In a context where the Council has seen significant reductions in funding levels and requires a system that meets the changing needs of the organisation, a decision was taken to review the Council's current ERP solution. The review was supported by Gartner to identify the current SAP roadmap, define and quantify transformation opportunities, detail the processes supported by the current SAP Solution and the future business requirements.

The Council will undertake a competitive procurement conducted in accordance with the Public Procurement Regulations 2015 (PPR's), the timetable for this is yet to be determined. The tender opportunity will be advertised in accordance with the PPR's and will be available via YorTender.
