Description

As a family of six community-based colleges across East Kent, EKC Group's mission is to play a leading role for East Kent in developing the economic and social prosperity of the communities we serve.
The Group's current Human Resources and Pay Roll system is being phased out by the supplier from 31 March 2026 and this has bought forward a planned procurement exercise for these solutions.
The Group employs over 1500 staff and provides HR and payroll services for our sister EKC Schools Trust, which has 700 employees over 15 schools. We have a wholly owned subsidiary that runs a Hotel which has 41 employees and a Tronc Scheme of 51 employees.
At present the Group has proprietary software for performance management, leave and expenses claims and a third-party recruitment and onboarding system (e-ploy). Whilst these could be maintained this tender includes the potential to include these elements within the overall software supplied.

The Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA) is on a journey to take back control of the city region's bus network through Bus Franchising. The LCRCA will become responsible for 100% of the bus network and will award contracts to operators to run these services on their behalf, with key performance metrics in place with constant monitoring of their performance. To support LCRCA's Bus Franchising service, LCRCA wish to procure a new Bus Franchising Contract Management System (CMS), with a combined performance payment calculator (PPC). The LCRCA Bus Franchising service is scheduled to go-live on September 6th 2026 and the new CMS (with PPC) must therefore be procured well in advance of this date and must be fully operational and ready for go-live use by 1st August 2026 (1x month before Bus Franchising go-live).

LCRCA are looking to engage with a Supplier to provide Contract Management capabilities that will allow the LCRCA to ensure each Bus Franchising Operators' service payment accurately reflects the contract in place and incorporates any performance measure adjustments.
