Preliminary Market Engagement for E-Procurement System

NOTICE AMENDED TO EXTEND TIME FOR RESPONSES TO 21.08.2026 BFL is undertaking market engagement to inform the development of a future procurement and contract management solution. We are seeking information from suppliers capable of delivering a modern, cloud-based platform that supports the end-to-end procurement lifecycle, including procurement compliance, eTendering, supplier management, contract management, reporting, governance, and integration with existing enterprise systems. This exercise is a Request for Information (RFI) and budgetary quotation only. It is not a call for competition and does not constitute any commitment to procure services. BFL currently operates multiple systems across procurement, contract management and related business processes. The organisation is exploring options for consolidating capabilities into a single strategic platform that: - Supports compliance with the UK Procurement Act 2023. - Integrates with the Central Digital Platform (CDP). - Provides end-to-end sourcing and contract management functionality. - Integrates with Microsoft Dynamics 365, Microsoft 365, Power BI and associated business systems. - Supports future expansion into Supplier Relationship Management (SRM), advanced analytics, supply chain management and AI-assisted procurement.
