What could rule a small business out: The notice does not list specific qualifications or certifications, but at an estimated £3.5 million for a full case management system, portal and register integration with ongoing support, most small businesses would likely be ruled out by the scale and software delivery experience required, and the full requirements are in Schedule 2, which is not included in the notice.
