Management Information Sheet
Norfolk Schools Management Information System (MIS) Framework
Background
The current Capita SIMS contract with Norfolk County Council expires on 31 March 2018 with no option to extend. In response to requests from our MIS contract and non MIS contracts customers, we are keen to offer a Multi MIS offering to give you more choice when selecting a MIS system to meet your future needs.
Norfolk County Council (NCC) have procured a framework for The Provision of a Management Information System (MIS) for Schools, Academies and Free Schools and is available for you to use regardless of your current MIS contract or supplier. Norfolk Schools and Academies are not obliged to use this framework and can make alternative arrangements if they so wish.
The following suppliers are now available on our Framework at discounted pricing:
- Capita SIMS
- Pupil Asset
- RM Integris
- Scholarpack
- Bromcom
It is anticipated that schools will join the contract from September 2017 to September 2018 dependant on when your current MIS contract expires. NCC will be encouraging all our existing SIMS MIS contract schools to make a decision on the Framework by 31 December 2017 to allow for any migration activity during early 2018 if you wish to change MIS.
Timescales
The Framework is now available and quotes can be requested via S4S.norfolk.gov.uk. There are further 'MIS supplier demonstration' days for you to view the systems available during September.
It is recommended the Head, Business Manager, Data Manager and School Secretary attend so you can make an informed decision for your school. Details of the events are below:
