What is being bought

Published requirement description

Seafish have been using Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM for a number of years for their customer relationship database, initially with an on-prem instance and now in the cloud. We are looking to rebuild the online portal for Levy submissions (which has not been in use for aprox 4 years) and would like to review the current CRM processes and build in more automation which will link with the portal.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
