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.
It will help the council modernize the way it works, improve services and build the foundations for future innovation.
Also said in the meeting
“Dudley Council currently operates with disparate systems within finance, HR and payroll. This has led to data silos, manual reconciliation efforts and increased operational risk.”
“The next phase will be to bring in the income management system, and later contracts, commissioning and grants.”
