The current system (Sage 200 / WAP) is no longer deemed to be sufficient to support the current structure, need for future fluidity and current reporting demands. There are also issues with how other systems within ETF communicate with the finance system, leading to potential non-compliance with finance regulations and Making Tax Digital (MTD).The decision has been made to review the market for systems that can provide solutions to all issues and can integrate with ETF's Azure database. This document is the initiation of that process, with a view to shortlisting a number of systems to be presented to an interview panel, with further analysis and discussion as appropriate. ETF is looking to elect one supplier as a long-term systems partner. ## CPV classification Software supply services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/43b158ef-86e2-484d-980c-31ab29d91fc3) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
