The buyer’s description
“***This is a Pre-Market Engagement Exercise** The Education Authority is undertaking a review of the preferred delivery approach for its future Education Case Management requirements. As part of previous market engagement activities, EA explored the procurement of a standalone Education Case Management System (ECMS) to support a range of pupil support services and associated business processes. Since completion of that engagement, EA has undertaken further strategic and technical analysis of its wider digital estate and enterprise application landscape. The review has identified a potential alternative approach whereby Education Case Management functionality could be delivered through the enhancement and extension of EA's existing low-code platform, Outsystems which is a key component of EA’s digital estate rather than through the procurement and implementation of a separate standalone case management solution. Please note that participation or non-participation in this PME exercise shall not prevent any supplier from participating in any future procurement process, nor is it intended that any information provided shall place any supplier at an advantage or disadvantage in any future procurement exercise. Further information including the questionnaire can be downloaded from the documents section of the CfT on eTendersNI.
