Notice Information

Notice Title

Cloud Software Engineering Partner

Notice Description

The Planning Inspectorate, who are based in Bristol, is part way through its Operational Delivery Transformation (ODT) project which is responsible for providing a new end-to-end digital solution to improve our customer experience and deliver an array of benefits. The project is currently operating as a standalone entity, with links into the Digital Services Team. The Digital Services Team are positioned in the Corporate Services Directorate. In the last few years, the team has built its capacity and capability to enable the Inspectorate to become a more digitally able organisation and manage the ODT solution when it transitions into the live environment. The Planning Inspectorate requires a supplier that can provide the necessary knowledge, skills, and experience to help modernise and manage cloud services for Digital & Data Services, on a range of internal and public facing services from discovery to live. Individual statements of work (SoW) will be agreed and aligned to discrete run and maintain needs and backlog delivery phases. Our digital needs are evolving as part of wider planning reforms, but the service is required to support our journey of modernising our planning solutions to the cloud building on the new and existing services. This is also in the context of a move to a service oriented operating model for Digital and Data Services and the continued run, maintain and transformation needs of a number of the Inspectorate's end-to-end services including Appeals, Applications, Examinations including the Back Office case management and underpinning Operational Data Warehouse.
