Licensing Solution Software Development for Irish Energy Regulator

The Commission for Regulation of Utilities (CRU) seeks a software solution provider to develop a phased licensing and consenting platform that will streamline end-to-end management of license and consent applications. The initial phase focuses on Electricity Generation licenses across four licensing regimes, including application submission with payment processing, review, decision-making, issuance, and post-issuance compliance tracking. The solution must be architected to support future expansion to additional licensing areas (Gas, Supply, Shipping, and Electricity wayleaves) with minimal customization. This is a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ) process for qualified software service providers. Key requirements include: scalable design for phased rollout, integration of payment systems, workflow automation for review and decision processes, and compliance management capabilities. Prospective bidders should have demonstrated experience delivering enterprise licensing software solutions, government IT systems integration, and phased implementation capabilities.
