Description

Milton Keynes City Council (MKCC) ('The Council') is seeking to engage with suppliers in advance of a future procurement exercise for a cloud-based Regulatory and Operational Case Management Platform.

Services anticipated to be within scope include: • Environmental Health • Environmental Crime • Trading Standards • Licensing • Private Sector Housing • Emergency Planning • Other related operational and regulatory functions The Council's preferred approach is a single corporate platform, although modular solutions from a single supplier may also be considered where they provide integrated functionality and a seamless user experience.

The purpose of the event will be to: • Share the Council's objectives • Present high-level requirements • Understand market capability • Explore implementation approaches • Gather supplier feedback on proposed procurement routes and contract structures This market engagement exercise is intended solely to gather information and understand market capabilities.
