Lot Description: Police Scotland’s current core finance system is going end of life in February 2027. Police Scotland will be looking to procure a Corporate Technology Platform to provide core functionality across various departments and in turn, replace the Authority’s finance system. However, due to the timescales associated with a procurement of a Corporate Technology Platform, an interim solution is required to maintain financial governance and prevent service disruption in the duration between the current system going end of life and the new Corporate Technology Platform going live. This procurement is for an Interim Finance System.
