Capita Schools Information Management System (SIMS) - Annual Maintenance Renewal
Decision Maker: Assistant director Corporate Support (Historic)
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Purpose:
The Council holds perpetual rights to SIMS
licences and renewing the support ensures that the system is
adequately updated, maintained and ensures availability of any
system upgrades. This allows the schools to continue to meet DfE
statutory regulations in respect of managing their pupil
data.
Support and maintenance for this product can only be obtained
directly through Capita Business Services Ltd, the proprietor of
the software.
The decision to renew the annual maintenance agreement with Capita
for a further 12 month period is in accordance with the waiver
produced and signed off in April 2019 authorising the current
contractual agreement to expire on 31st March 2021.
