Your Problem

Most councils currently manage tenders and contracts using a range of methods including templates, Excel spread sheets, intranet capabilities, Access databases and other disjointed mechanisms.

These systems and processes provide some level of control, but do not adequately address probity issues. This is partly because assessment weightings may not be set prior to accepting tenders, little assistance or control exists around the use of templates, and the whole system is  reliant upon users following the correct process.

Manual controls and training typically exists within council, however, there is poor visibility of progress, and staff who rarely use the system are prone to inadvertent errors.

Councils are required to manage transparent tender and contract management processes that comply with a number of legislative requirements, guides and policies.

Manual systems are prone to lapses in process and also often result in corporate knowledge being dispersed or remaining with an individual.
