What the notice says

Torbay Council’s current Finance system is with OneAdvanced on their e5 product and the Authority is currently on the final version of this product, known as e5.7. As the current product is the final development of this on-premise legacy solution it expected that support for this product will end within the next few years. To that end, Torbay Council are seeking to procure a new cloud-based finance system.
