Like many Revenues and Benefit services Slough has seen increases in workloads and additional demands by the DWP at the same time as reduced funding and resourcing pressures. The service needs to do more for less and is looking at opportunities to automate high volume transactions. The Service has identified a number of key transactions that it feels are suited to robotic automation and is seeking a supplier to deliver a proven solution to these and to offer additional opportunities to automate further processes where the business case is proven. The service would expect suppliers to have a track record (at least 2 years of operation) of delivering the automation of the key processes identified onto the Capita Academy Revenues and Benefits System, this should be backed up with appropriate reference sites. Solutions should be legislatively appropriate and meet the requirements of the DWP and other Government agencies as required.
