What is being bought

Published requirement description

Delivery partner to design, implement and support an integrated Finance, Commercial and HR solution for NI Water.

NI Water hopes that this procurement process will return the optimal solution that delivers value-for-money based upon stated target outcomes/requirements, rather than seeking to select a solution, or solution components that may not deliver an effective integrated solution.
