II.2.4) Description of the procurement
Prior to the award of these contracts, the current provider (ESS) had a contract with the local authority under which it provided a perpetual licence to the local authority for the purpose of providing SIMS to the schools in the local authority's area, with associated support services.
ESS has now served notice to terminate that contract and requires that, in order to continue provision of SIMS, individual schools must enter into direct contracts with ESS to receive SIMS as software as a service.
In order to bring about the transition, the local authority will enter into a Facilitation Agreement ("FA") with ESS under which nothing of value is received by ESS and no material services are provided to the local authority; it is purely an administrative arrangement to effect the transition. Each school in the local authority's area will enter into a School Contract ("SC") with ESS for the direct provision of SIMS as software as a service, at substantially the same cost as before.
The highest value SC is GBP 23463.84 and the lowest value SC GBP 713.73. The schools in the local authority's area whose governing bodies will enter into contracts with ESS are as follows:
Abercerdin Primary School, Afon-y-felin Primary School, Archdeacon John Lewis C in W Primary, Betws Primary School , Blaengarw Primary School, Brackla Primary School , Bryncethin Primary School, Brynmenyn Primary School , Bryntirion Infant School , Careau Primary School , Cefn Cribwr Primary School ,Cefn Glas Infant School , Coety Primary School ,Corneli Primary School , Coychurch Llangrallo Primary School , Croesty Primary School , Cwmfelin Primary School ,Ffaldau Primary School , Garth Primary School, Heronsbridge School, Litchard Primary School, Llangewydd Junior School, Maes Yr Haul Primary School, Mynydd Cynffig Primary School, Nantyffyllon Primary School, Nantymoel Primary School, Newton Primary School, Nottage Primary School, Ogmore Vale Primary School, Oldcastle Primary School, Pencoed Primary School, Pen-y-Bont Primary School, Pen-y-fai C in W Primary School, Pil Primary School, Plasnewydd Primary School, Portfolio PRU, Porthcawl Primary School, St Marys Patricks RC Primary, St Marys Catholic Primary School, St Roberts RC Primary School, Tondu Primary School, Trelales Primary School, Tremains Primary School, Tynyrheol Primary School, West Park Primary School, Ysgol Bryn Castell, Ysgol Gymraeg Bro Ogwr, Ysgol Gynradd Gymraeg Calon Y Cymoedd, Ysgol Gynradd Gymraeg Cynwyd Sant, Ysgol Y Ferch O'r Sger Corneli, Archbishop McGrath RC Comp Sch, Brynteg School,
