Notice Description

We are keen to hear from suppliers of identity management systems, who may be able to offer a complete solution encompassing the provision of photo ID cards to all staff, with variable security settings to allow different groups of staff and individuals varying access rights.

We are keen to hear from suppliers who believe they have solutions that can meet the requirements within this advert. Interested suppliers or groups of suppliers are requested to submit an initial response (max 4 pages) covering the following as a minimum: - Brief introduction / overview of company - Overview of solution on offer, including key features - Ability of solution to link on a live basis with HR records (i.e. ESR) - Typical delivery resources required to implement, including implementation timescales for an organisation of our size (10,000 staff, one large acute hospital, around 12 community hospitals, approx. 50 smaller community sites) - Whether the solution can be built on a modular basis (i.e. introduced at one site and then rolled out gradually to others) - Indicative charges for the proposed solution - Contact information - Case study (preferably within the NHS) The supplier response deadline is 12 noon on 11th October 2019. All queries and responses must be submitted through the ProContract e-tendering portal: https://procontract.due-north.com/Login
