two.1.4) Short description
Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service (LFRS) is seeking to procure a HR System to effectively manage all work streams and demands of our Human Resources function. For now, LFRS is seeking to conduct market engagement prior to going out to tender to identity the optimum method of delivering the services and achieving key strategic objectives.
It is vital that LFRS works with a viable and credible supplier who has the track record, and professional discretion to deliver the required solution and services which will enable LFRS to meet its current and future goals and business needs.
The purpose of this Prior Information Notice (PIN) is for LFRS to view HR systems currently available and ask for interest from suppliers to host demonstrations of how their existing solutions will meet our present and future requirements.
LFRS will use the demonstrations to gather information and produce a specification of requirements, which will be used for any future tender exercise that may take place.
