[DescrProcurement]

The finance unit within the National Transport Authority (NTA) has responsibility for financial accounts, management reporting, procurement, grant management, accounts receivable, accounts payable, external/internal audit, risk management and corporate governance.
The next phase of the NTA’s growth is intrinsically linked to Project Ireland 2040 and the NTA’s Bus Connects Programme which incorporates Next Generation Ticketing (NGT). To support this growth the NTA has concluded that, in a phased manner, the current existing finance system should be replaced with a modern Solution which will enable process improvement resulting in greater efficiencies. The NTA intends to appoint a Service Provider for the full scope of the provision, implementation, maintenance and support of the solution.
