Description
SCDC is leading on a joint procurement exercise to acquire a Biodiversity Net Gain system (the System) on behalf of the GCSP.
In both Cambridge City and South Cambridgeshire records relating to Biodiversity Net Gain within planning agreements need to be reviewed by a software product that need to be commercial off the shelf product that his a full turn key solution.
The software should align to and utilise Defra's Biodiversity Metric and BNG criteria, facilitating the import and verification of that service output It should also include the functionality to adjust these criteria, in line with any policy changes that may occur. The software needs to be able to validate planning applications through a process of assessment and determination.
It is important that the software platform be cloud based, compatible with Windows 10 and 11, and able to be used via Microsoft Edge, which is the Councils preferred browser. The server ideally should be hosting data within the UK.
The system needs to be GDPR compliant and a GDPR impact assessment needs to be undertaken. A data sharing agreement between the provider and the local authority must be generated if data is shared through use of the product.
The system will be used by multiple individuals with the organisation. Any software licence procured should enable its use across a minimum of six machines. System administration access and the right to alter the system would be preferred.
The system will need to have basic security controls in place and be easy to use.
The system will also need to enable the existing data from our existing systems to be transferred into the Biodiversity Net Gain Software.
The new System should be configured, tested and available for use prior to a go live date.
