We currently use several applications and manual solutions to manage the funding we allocate to over 700 tertiary education organisations (TEOs). These solutions are fragmented and complex, making it difficult and time consuming to manage funding information. In particular, we use a large number of complex spreadsheets to support our funding processes.
To mitigate the risks that our current solution creates, we have initiated the Funds Management and Payments (FMP) project to:
1. implement an integrated solution that provides better financial control, transparency and efficiency across our funding information and processes
2. make our financial management system (TechnologyOne) the master information source for appropriations and TEO funding allocations
3. introduce new capability to manage funding rules and detailed delivery calculations in a single application
4. provide readily available reporting on the allocation of funding
5. provide workflow support for payment approval processes
6. reduce the complexity of and the amount of data held in our Data Warehouse
7. establish efficiencies through the scheduling of our interfaces
8. establish an end to end business owner resulting in better control of process and system changes
This is a substantial project introducing new applications and interfaces. It requires changes to our data warehouse, financial management system, reporting, master data management and business processes.
A key component of our future design is a Job Scheduling application to automate our background processes. We require the application to manage the interfaces required to support FMP. In the longer term, we will look to extend scheduling across our other applications.
This RFP is for the procurement of the Job Scheduling application. In addition, we require the successful Respondent to work with our staff during the design and delivery phases to:
1. provide training for members of the project team
2. provide advice on how to integrate the Job Scheduling application into the design of our interfaces
3. design of the job scheduling
4. help with the infrastructure design (as part of our wider FMP infrastructure design)
5. plan for the delivery phase
We also require ongoing third level support.
