Seven essential criteria were outlined which included a full readiness review, software that meets the MTD compliance requirements, the creation of an interface and/or digital links between the council's existing software and the LA schools systems, software capable of managing the council's partial exemption calculations, a supplier with tax expertise, a supplier committed to maintain their solution in the event of any changes in legislation and a supplier who would offer ongoing post-implementation support. ## CPV classification Software package and information systems Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/f4614613-7230-42a1-8411-d0587f5bdf88) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
