University of York - IAM - Technical Implementation Partner Services
Description: The University of York is issuing this Pre-Market Engagement (PME) notice so we can engage with the "Certified Okta Consultant" market as defined in our Planned Procurement Notice (PPN) 2026/S 000-095516; and subsequently an Invitation to Tender (ITT). This PME notice is published to trigger Expressions of Interest (EoI) and to allow for a Non Disclosure Agreement (NDA) to be issued. The prerequisites for receiving the NDA and having a successful EoI are stated in the related PPN. If you consider yourself to be a "Certified Okta partner with at least "consultant level certification" or higher you are applicable for this PME and to be considered for participation in our subsequent Invitation to Tender (ITT) . The University will therefore conduct a closed PME, in advance of tendering (read more...)
Summary: The University of York plans to procure a technical implementation partner to deliver its new Okta identity and access management (IAM) platform. The work covers implementation services, including platform configuration and integration, and is intended to establish the University’s IAM system. Okta itself has already been selected through a separate procurement; this procurement is for implementation, not for choosing the software platform. The services are classified as software implementation and integration consultancy. Delivery is for the University of York in York. The University is first undertaking preliminary market engagement with certified Okta consultants to refine its requirements before issuing a tender. This is an early-stage plan, rather than an invitation to tender.
