The council has been using Unit4 as its
Finance system since 2004. Last year Unit4 publicly announced that
they were moving all customers to their SaaS (Cloud) solution. Any
on-premise solutions would no longer be supported.
Considering the high-risk implications of being unsupported by
Unit4 for a significant period whilst we move to an alternative
cloud solution, a decision has been made to move to Unit4 full SaaS
by December 2026. This requires the council to sign up to a
three-year contract by 31 December 2024.
Decision type: Non-key
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Notice of proposed decision first published: 24/01/2025
Decision due: 18 Dec 2024 by Strategic Director (People and Transformation)
