The nature of managing this spend in this Solution is still being defined but will be clarified later in the Procurement Process.\nS2C:\nFor spend that is not readily available when requisitioned, the Solution would also have integrated Sourcing, Contracting and Supplier / Contract Performance Management functionality, that is triggered by workflow management to a central Procurement function.\nAll S2P activities must workflow automatically and allow for online collaboration between SW colleagues and Suppliers, who will be able to access the Solution via a secure external Supplier Portal.\nThe number of integrations to legacy SW systems is still being defined, but we would expect the Solution to be able to readily integrate to common Finance or HR platforms as a minimum and have SSO capability.\nIt must also have the capability to be integrated with Asset Management, Inventory and Stores solutions, as a possible further future activity. (Although this is not in the initial implementation scope, it is essential there is evidential functional capability to do so.)\nThe Solution Provider will identify three (3) SIPs, and a preferred SIP. All SIPs must be certified by the Solution Provider."
