Birmingham City Council signals demand for Oracle go-live support and change services

Birmingham City Council says its Oracle re-implementation has moved into cutover, with focus now on data migration, safe implementation, organisational readiness and hypercare. The meeting points to likely demand for implementation support, business change, training and post-go-live support around a large ERP rollout.

Go-live support and hypercare around implementation; procurement route not stated

Indicative signal — not an official notice. This is an indicative signal produced by QuorumInsight from a public council meeting. It is not an official procurement or tender notice, is not published or endorsed by the council, and no notice has necessarily been issued on Find a Tender or Contracts Finder. Value, route to market and timing are estimates inferred from what was said and may change. Always verify directly with the authority before acting.

The programme itself has successfully transitioned into cutover and the focus has now very much shifted from the system testing to the data migration, managing a safe implementation, and organisational readiness, business change, and the hypercare and support that comes afterwards.

Also said in the meeting

It is a big complex ERP implementation.
There are, including reports, 140 different integrations involved.
Actually, the business change when we go live is the majority of the work that needs to go on.

What we know

  • The Oracle/Brindley re-implementation has moved into cutover and is approaching go-live.
  • The programme is described as a big, complex ERP implementation with 140 integrations and 4.9 million migrating records.
  • The meeting says the main work at go-live will be business change, supported by change champions across directorates.

Why this is a signal, not noise

The meeting gives a clear requirement signal from a large ERP programme approaching go-live, but it does not state a tender route or tender date.
