## About this tender

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is launching Connect to Work programme (formerly known as Universal Support), an employment programme aimed at assisting disabled individuals and unemployed people with complex needs in securing employment.

CLF is a strategic sub-regional partnership encompassing the local authorities of: Camden Council, City of London Corporation, Hackney Council, Haringey Council, Islington Council, Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, Lambeth Council, Lewisham Council, Southwark Council, Tower Hamlets Council, Wandsworth Council, Westminster City Council.

To effectively manage contract delivery in line with DWP requirements, there is a need for a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) System Software as a Service (SaaS) to be shared with all delivery partners. The system must capture the end-to-end customer journey and meet all Management Information (MI) requirements as outlined in the Grant Guidance.

The duration of the agreement is 5 years only.
