Description
UKHSA is undertaking an Early Market Engagement (EME) exercise to inform the potential procurement of services for the implementation of the Agency’s Payroll Module in MaPS (an Oracle-based ERP system) and the associated payroll processing services. This is not a call for competition but a pre-procurement activity aimed at gathering insights from experienced suppliers, understanding the current supplier landscape, and refining the procurement approach ahead of a possible Invitation to Tender (ITT). It aims to ensure that the forthcoming ITT is robust, deliverable, and aligned with current market capabilities. We are particularly interested in cloud-based or SaaS payroll solutions that integrate with Oracle Fusion HR and finance systems, support statutory compliance, and provide strong user experience through self-service capabilities. We are seeking to engage with suppliers who have Oracle Configuration experience and can offer innovative, scalable, and compliant payroll services or systems to support the delivery of accurate, secure, timely, and efficient payroll to our workforce. Objectives of the Market Engagement exercise  Assess market interest and identify any potential challenges or innovations.  Understand the capabilities and offerings available in the market for Oracle ERP system integration and payroll processing services.  Understand potential delivery models, implementation timescales, and support arrangements; including single or multiple supplier approaches.  Assess indicative timelines, costs, and resource implications.  Identify innovative solutions and value-added services.  Test our assumptions and validate our planned approach prior to launching an ITT  Inform the development of a robust business case and procurement strategy.

At this stage, suppliers may express interest in providing one or both service areas. Any subsequent procurement will clarify the options to tender for one or both of the core requirements. Market Engagement Activities  Expression of Interest: Suppliers should contact (Commercial Colleagues) to register an interest in the exercise.  UKHSA Presentation: Registered suppliers will be invited to a UKHSA presentation/clarification call to gain insight into UKHSA’s planned activities.  Completion of a Supplier Questionnaire: Suppliers will be asked to complete a short questionnaire focused on capabilities, delivery models, pricing principles, experience, and preliminary thoughts on the proposed scope.
