What the notice says

This Request for Information (RfI) seeks market insight and a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) for replacing Cadent’s current financial planning solution. The RfI will help Cadent understand available solution capabilities, delivery approaches, implementation effort, indicative timescales, operating models and whole-life costs. It is a market-testing exercise only and does not commit Cadent to a particular solution, supplier or subsequent procurement route.

How to bid

  1. Read the full notice on Find a Tender, including any tender documents it links to.
  2. Register your organisation on the Central Digital Platform (through Find a Tender) if you have not already. Suppliers need to be registered to take part in procurements under the Procurement Act 2023.
  3. Follow the submission instructions in the notice; it does not name an e-tendering portal.
