26-001 Accounts Payable Automation Solution

Thompson Rivers University is seeking proposals from vendors to provide an automated solution for Accounts Payable and employee expense reimbursement processes within its Finance department. Vendors may propose a comprehensive Procure-to-Pay solution; however, the Accounts Payable module must be deployable independently as the initial implementation phase. Proposals must include both the supply of the solution and its implementation, requiring the selection of an implementation partner prior to submission if necessary. The selected vendor will be responsible for developing an interface between the proposed solution and the University’s ERP system, Ellucian Banner, using Ethos middleware, which is the approved integration platform. Proposals are to be submitted via the University’s competitive bidding platform, EUNA Bonfire, by February 11, 2026. The solicitation is managed by Thompson Rivers University under the Government of Canada, with direct inquiries directed to the designated Contracting Authority via the provided contact email. The focus of this contract is to enhance financial operational efficiencies through automation while ensuring compatibility and seamless data integration with existing University systems.
