The brief

The Rainbow programme will define a new operating model for NS&I and is a critical priority for the business in order to prepare for, and deliver, the outsourced model post 2025.

A secure document management and collaboration platform, entirely separate from the Atos-supported IT infrastructure, is required to facilitate Rainbow programme work.

A solution separate from the Atos infrastructure is essential to avoid any potential conflict of interest related to the procurement activity.

A secure cloud-hosted Microsoft Office 365 solution is the most effective fit to NS&I's operational requirements and is what has been utilised since the start of the transformation programme.

As the Rainbow programme's timescales have been stretched, the provision of this service by the incumbent is still required and so a new contract has been direct awarded for 12 months.
