Decision Maker: Director of Resources/Deputy Chief Executive
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
The Council is currently in a contract with
Civica Financials for our core financial system i.e. general
ledger, creditors and debtors. Most users are currently on the
rich-client version of the system which is no longer being
supported. The new user interface is more user friendly and better
to roll out to staff due to new functionality compared to the
existing web version.
A recent demonstration of the UI system received positive feedback
from financial staff members.
This decision to upgrade to UI would also extend the current
support for rich-client during the project implementation
period
Option 2. As this is not a material change in
the contract the decision has been signed off under delegated
authority pursuant to Constitution Part 4 para 24.1(e).
Option 1 - Roll out the current web version to
all end users.
Option 2 - Upgrade to the new UI version and then roll out to
staff. This would include new functionality and offer more
flexibility for staff
