## About this tender

The University of Strathclyde (UOS) is currently considering the option of migrating our on-premise ERP system (Unit 4 Milestone 7) to the cloud.

To support this consideration and under the terms of Regulation 41 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 UOS, prior to commencing a live procurement process, is using this notice to undertake Preliminary market consultation on services that will be required to support the migration. The migration must include the conversion of the M7 data from on premise Oracle databases to Microsoft SQL server databases.

UOS seeks notes of interests from suppliers able to offer these support services to participate in initial market consultation. The undernoted provides details in relation to the envisaged project. Interested parties are required to note their interest against this notice, thereafter UOS shall engage with interested parties in order to test, inform and develop the procurement strategy. Please note that UOS reserves the right to engage with all, or any ( a limited number of ) suppliers as is deemed necessary to support this process. Further note that any contract opportunity arising in relation to this project may be the subject of a future contract notice.

Part of the market consultation shall be to consider the appropriateness of splitting this requirement into lots, this will be confirmed in future notices and whilst UOS has indicated that, at this time, the contract is envisaged to be split into lots, UOS reserves the right to alter that approach.

The migration must include the conversion of the M7 data from on premise Oracle databases to Microsoft SQL server databases.

This is a key part of a project to migrate M7 to Unit 4’s cloud. This is an intermediate step to enable that migration to take place as it is not possible to migrate an Oracle M7 to Unit 4’s cloud.

That project will start in Jan 2025 and is due to end in Dec 2026. This intermediate step will start in Jan 2025 will end at some point (TBD) in 2026.

Due to the pressing timescales, it is important that UOS select a reliable implementation partner with a track record of converting Unit 4 ERP systems, and experience of supporting Unit 4 ERP systems.
