Description
Companies House intend to transform our identity and access management capabilities during the next two years. We are currently in the Discovery stage of this work, having developed a good understanding of the problem we are trying to solve, carried out initial user research and analysed our current identity infrastructure.
In order to help us progress to the next stage, we have identified the need for consultancy services to explore and challenge our current thinking, help us articulate our requirements and assist in writing a procurement specification in order to procure the right services and components.
This is a specialised area, and we require independent specialist advice on our intended approach and to help us make the right decisions. While we have developed a good understanding of the identity domain and have built a network of expertise across Government, we cannot rely on this alone to develop a sufficiently robust specification of our requirements in order to take procurement to the next stage.
We need the experience and expertise of specialists who have been through this process before and are independent of any commercial suppliers. This will allow time during March for the procurement specification to be developed, and for procurement activity to begin as early as possible in the 2020/2021 financial year.
Companies House will be transforming our identity and access management capabilities during the next two years. This is a specialised area, and we require independent specialist advice on our intended approach and to help us make the right commercial decisions.
A business justification case for the project as a whole is in the early stages of drafting. The independent consultant will assist with this.
