This would provide Key Performance Indicators \(KPI\) and real-time reporting\. Stock integration would give users complete control over G\.P, and allow for the authorisation and tracking of purchases as well as giving an instant view of stock that is held, by both quantity and value\. UCA has 4 campuses and there are multiple activities that need to be managed\. Users often struggle to manage the activity and provide just in time ordering of stock to balance sales\. In addition the reconciliation of the financial status of the business provides a challenge which technology can assist with\. This would improver the overall management and enhance user experience\. The program aims to implement identity in achievable, sequenced projects to achieve its goals\. Additional information: Tender questions and UCA formal response added\.
