Professional Services for the Finance Invoicing Functionality

Description

The decision to implement the Proactis invoicing functionality for the London Borough of Sutton and the Royal Borough of Kingston Business World (Unit4) finance service is based on a technological fit and cost efficiency. This direct procurement approach is financially advantageous given the Direct Purchase Cost (Proactis) is £33,125 compared to £50,000 for a purchase through other providers. This is to support a finance system that was procurement by the London borough of Sutton for services provided to the London Borough of Sutton and the Royal Borough of Kingston. This strategy achieves a £17,000 cost mitigation for the Council's professional services requirement procurement cost, representing a 34% reduction compared to purchasing the professional services through Unit4. In summary, selecting Proactis ensures a well-integrated, vendor-supported solution that leverages existing technology roadmaps, while the split procurement strategy delivers a significant financial saving on professional services.
