The project involves the provision of advanced email filtering, enabling end users to report suspicious messages, and offering bi-lingual (Welsh/English) content delivery. The tender period ends on 13th January 2025, with an estimated contract value of £200,000.00. The procurement process, under the restricted procedure, is currently in the tender stage. The location for this service is Cardiff Bay, and the term of the contract is set for five years, with a renewal option in 2029. This tender offers significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in cyber security solutions, particularly those with capabilities in providing bilingual email security services. It is an excellent fit for vendors experienced with email filtering technologies and user-focused cyber security measures. Businesses adept at delivering ongoing support and capable of integrating their solutions seamlessly into existing IT infrastructures will find this contract particularly suitable. ## Notice Currently, the Senedd has a contract in place providing an e-mail security platform which forms an important part of the organisation's cyber security infrastructure and programme. The solution delivers advanced e-mail filtering functionality and gives end users the ability to report suspicious messages. This additional layer of security ensures we are far more likely to detect and stop attacks which are not detected by our Microsoft e-mail and security products, and includes Welsh/English delivery and end user interaction. This project is designed to ensure the Senedd is able to benefit from this type of capability for the next contract cycle. The proposed solution will need to provide email filtering, give end users the ability to report suspicious e-mails, and provide the security team with a native and efficient means of communicating with the affected users, regardless of the end users' platform/OS. End-user-facing content needs to offer bi-lingual delivery, tailored to the users' language preference. The contract will include the supply and installation of the solution, with ongoing support. The term of the contract will be for a 5 year period. The previous tender process that was run under PQQ reference 33572 has been stopped. This is a new tender process for an Email Security Platform and is being run under PQQ reference 33626. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Currently, the Senedd has a contract in place providing an e-mail security platform which forms an important part of the organisation's cyber security infrastructure and programme.
