Current System provides an auditable booking system, utilizing, Palm digital assistants (PDAs) for deliveries and collections on site, lap tops & printers for the booking in process, generating unique booking reference & barcode, it has the ability to send automated emails to our customers on booking in.

There are current limitations with flexibility and control of email templates and the ability to change these to suit requirements and we have identified new business needs.

### Aims & Objectives

STFC's strategic aim is to secure a system that enables a consistent approach to booking in and management and movement of in-bound goods received by logistics at core sites Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) and Daresbury Laboratory (DL), with scope to extend the service to other sites as required.

STFC seeks to secure a supplier that can provide products and services that enable STFC to deliver an integrated and effective approach to enable an auditable inventory of items for the below stated core business needs:

- Booking in process (couriers/suppliers/pallets)
- Delivery process on site and network (own fleet)
- Customer collection process (Front desk)

- Supply the right products, expertise, and services.

### The Scope

The Scope of the procurement covers Logistics - Inbound Goods system as a solution for the requirement of STFC, initial installation at RAL (Rutherford Appleton Laboratory) site with a further extension of the services to Daresbury Laboratory (DL) as phase 2.

STFC's strategic aim is to secure a system that enables a consistent approach to booking in and management and movement of in-bound goods received by logistics at the above core sites. The successful supplier is therefore expected to have the capability to scale up to the other sites.

The budget is flexible year on year, however the Bids that exceed the maximum budget of £175,000.00 for the four years in total, will not be considered.
