Oracle Fusion Cloud

2026-11-03

INTRODUCTION Cornwall Council is planning to undertake preliminary market engagement to ensure we are receiving best value regarding our Oracle Fusion platform. Since transitioning to Oracle Fusion in 2020, we have not yet realised the full return on our cloud investment; therefore, we intend to continue with Oracle Fusion in order to fully realise the value of our investment. As part of developing our plans to meet this requirement we are issuing this Request for Information (RFI). This RFI is looking to confirm that we are receiving the best value from our licensing agreement for HCM, ERP and EPM modules and additionally gain a greater understanding of the market’s abilities. This RFI will allow the Council to review supplier responses and use the provided information and insights in future decision making for the Council’s strategic Oracle Fusion requirements. It is intended that the responses supplied will enable the Council to develop a business proposal. Any such proposal would be subject to the development and approval of a business case, and, as such, this exercise implies no commercial commitment. This is not a formal tender document. Participation of this early market engagement will not prejudice suppliers participating in any potential future procurement. Suppliers are invited to submit a response to this RFI. Please provide your response by 15:00 on 4 February 2026. Responses should be submitted via email addressed to: Alex.Kirk@cornwall.gov.uk The Council may hold virtual meetings via Microsoft Teams with suppliers that respond to the RFI. These meetings will be to discuss the suppliers’ RFI responses in further detail. The Council will decide whether to host these meetings once the RFI responses have been received and reviewed, also communicating the decision with participating suppliers at that time.
