Tender description

Requirement to manage the daily workflow for the cemeteries, crematorium memorial and other bereavement related activities in Sandwell. Requirement to provide various mapping options to use within the software. Lot 1: Sandwell's Bereavement Services is seeking a cloud-based, specialised solution that not only allows the Council to meet its statutory duties, but which also enables operational efficiencies, leaner processes, and improved communication. The service requires a holistic view of operations, covering not just burials, cremations, but also a single source of information relating to memorial sales, work orders, and safety inspections. The ability to have a single view of bookings across all facilities is a must.
