Description

The existing development management system, Acolaid, has been used at the Royal Borough since 2006.  Acolaid and its suppliers, Idox, have performed well in providing a comprehensive platform for key operations within DRES.  However, Acolaid is now a legacy product in need of replacement.
Acolaid is now only developed to meet changing statutory requirements.  This has allowed the Royal Borough to continue delivering business as usual activities with relatively few issues.  However, the absence of functional and user interface developments has meant that Acolaid now appears dated and lacking in the modern interfaces and functionality that are required in a corporate software platform.
The supplier has expressed a desire for the Royal Borough to offboard from Acolaid due to the increasing burden of maintaining support for the platform.  Support for Acolaid from Idox will not be in perpetuity.
Acolaid is now incompatible with Azure Virtual Desktop, the council's chosen remote working solution.  A workaround has been established to allow users to work remotely, however this is at a premium infrastructure cost and cannot be regarded as a long-term solution.
The objective is to replace Acolaid with a new cloud hosted platform.  The new system will provide services with a robust, modern, feature rich platform that can be scaled and adapted to meet the ever-evolving needs of the Royal Borough

The People Data Hub and Identity Governance Administration (IGA) project aims to streamline and centralise Identity data management across the university ensuring governance policies align with access rights and permissions. By incorporating automated workflows and policy enforcement the People Data Hub and Identity Governance Administration (IGA) project will: - Aggregate data from multiple sources, ingest data feeds and create identity records. - Detect and process records - deduplication, merging and splitting person data. - Ensure data accessibility, consistency and reporting adhering to seamless integration. - Reduce human error, enhance security and mitigate risks related to access. - Comply with various regulations and standards. The University of Manchester no longer meets the criteria of a 'body governed by public law' and is therefore not considered a contracting authority for the purposes of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and/or any replacement legislation. As a result, the University of Manchester will no longer be subject to the regime contained in The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and/or any replacement legislation with effect from 1 August 2023. However, as an institution founded for the public good, an exempt charity and an organization in receipt of public funds, the University has a duty to manage expenditure in an appropriate manner and aims to deliver value for money across its non-pay spend by adhering to good procurement practice. Information, formalities and necessary requirements to be met will be set out in the procurement documents, all of which are freely available via the University's procurement portal In-Tend - https://in-tendhost.co.uk/manchesteruniversity
