Description

Bristol City Council (“BCC”) is undertaking a Soft Market Testing Exercise in relation to the availability of Legal Management software solutions. This will feed into the development of BCC’s ongoing strategy in this area. As part of this Soft Market Testing Exercise, BCC will invite some of the participating respondents to demonstrate their product and platform to a panel of project stakeholders. BCC will reserve the right to determine who is invited to any demonstration, and an expression of interest by a supplier does not mean an invitation will be automatically forthcoming. Any suppliers who are not invited to a product demonstration are not excluded from involvement in any future procurement project for this requirement. The Soft Market Test will comprise of two parts: Part 1: Expression of interest (EOI) of participation, and high-level capability assessment - Advert released 1st February 2021 - EOIs allowed from 1st February 2021 to 12th February 2021 @ 12pm As part of EOI submission, supplier will be asked to complete a short yes/no questionnaire to assess initial capability Part 2: Further capability assessment and potential demonstration sessions

Indicators

Other Information

- From this shortlist of interested suppliers, BCC will provide a more detailed questionnaire for suppliers to complete, to further assess market capability. This will be available to all suppliers who meet all requirements in the yes/no questionnaire in Part 1 - We may also invite certain suppliers to an online demonstration session of their product Whilst BCC’s strategic preference is for a Software-as-a-Service solution, we are willing to consider alternative models that may be available in the market. For the avoidance of doubt, this process is for the purpose of conducting a Soft Market Testing Exercise, and will not formally begin the procurement or constitute any commitment by BCC to undertake any procurement exercise.
