Short description

North Yorkshire County Council are seeking to award a contract for the provision of a Passenger Transport System. The councils Passenger Transport and Home to School Transport Teams use an in-house developed system (PARIS) to support much of the work they do. This was built over 20 years ago using Oracle development tools and has been continually developed during that time; however, it is becoming increasingly difficult to support and further develop for a number of different reasons. The Authority has many corporate systems in place covering centralised management of related functions (e.g. finance, schools and customer portal), and we would expect the new solution to support interaction with these systems rather than providing duplicate functionality.

Description of the procurement

North Yorkshire County Council are seeking to award a contract for the provision of a Passenger Transport System. The councils Passenger Transport and Home to School Transport Teams use an in-house developed system (PARIS) to support much of the work they do. This was built over 20 years ago using Oracle development tools and has been continually developed during that time; however, it is becoming increasingly difficult to support and further develop for a number of different reasons. As the system is largely representative of business needs 20 years ago, and no longer reflects or delivers the needs of a modern business, the Authority would like to procure a replacement solution, which can also provide additional functionality. The Authority has many corporate systems in place covering centralised management of related functions (e.g. finance, schools and customer portal), and we would expect the new solution to support interaction with these systems rather than providing duplicate functionality.
