Description

The Architects Registration Board (ARB) uses several backup technologies to support their Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity plan. The in-situ backup technology is mature, and ARB seeks to replace it with new technology that will both reduce costs and facilitate a more comprehensive backup strategy.

ARB's in-situ backup solution is a managed, outsourced solution ("Backup as a Service") provided under contract.

The attached document provides general information about ARB, the tendering process, an overview of the IT systems in use and a list of requirements for data protection.

ARB is the UK's statutory regulator of architects. We are an independent, public interest body, set up by an Act of Parliament in 1997. We are a small organisation with 29 members of staff. You can find out more about the organisation at: http://www.arb.org.uk/about-arb/
