Pre Tender Market Sounding for Replacement of Existing Registration System

The Teaching Council wishes to engage with vendors to replace the existing Registration database system in order to help achieve the goals set out in the Teaching Council Strategic Plan 2018-2020 and the Teaching Council ICT Strategy. In order to facilitate this, a thorough review of existing processes has been carried out to identify shortcomings in current processes and systems. The existing system has many manual touchpoints and there is a recognised need to digitize and streamline the process of registration as much as possible. A system which incorporates a feature rich, self-service portal and mobile app for both applicants and registered teachers will facilitate this. The ultimate ambition is to have a solution in place which allows for improved service delivery to applicants and teachers while enabling more efficient use of Teaching Council resources. The objective of this market sounding exercise is to get an understanding of what systems might be available to meet the needs of the Teaching Council and what order of magnitude the costs might be. This is NOT a tender process and no contracts will be awarded at this stage. This is not a call for competition and participation or non-participation in this exercise will not prejudice or influence participation in any future tender competition nor guarantee or influence pre-qualification for any future competition. A formal tender process may or may not arise in due course following this exercise. All information / material provided will be treated in the strictest of confidence by the Teaching Council.
