Description of the procurement

The existing HR, DMS and TAS system provides a number of capabilities to West Mercia Police.
The Human Resources (HR) element provides the capability for the recording and management of employee records including personal data (name, DOB, address, gender, ethnicity etc), leave, sickness and disciplinary information. The existing system holds details of circa 4,000 employees and contains legacy information of individuals who have left or retired from the organisation. It also allows for reporting to the home office on specific categories.
The Duties Management System (DMS) element enables future scheduling of officers and staff, assigning individuals to specific areas or units on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.
The Training Administration System (TAS) element provides the capability for the recording and management of training records associated to employees including expiry data.
The data contained within this system is central to the effective operation of the force, and as such there is a strong need for this data to be accessible, and to be able to be integrated to a significant number of other systems within West Mercia. The solution will need to be able to broker these data exchanges, to ensure the data within is as interoperable as possible.
This tender is seeking a contractor to deliver to the organisation a new, current, modern solution to cater for these business practices and processes.
It is required that the successful contractor will (as part of the implementation services) complete a migration of West Mercia data within the current system to the new system
