The brief

The purpose of this Procurement Process is for The National Archives (TNA) to select a Supplier to deliver a database solution for its Collection Care department (CCD).

Our aim is to shift from a series of ad-hoc, internally-hosted datasets to a unified cloud solution.

Our strong preference is for the solution to be based on a pre-existing and demonstrably functional solution, which would require minimal configuration and/or development in order to meet the functional requirements described in Section 5 of the Invitation to Tender document.

Whilst our strong preference is for the solution to be delivered as Software as a Service (SaaS), Potential Suppliers may submit solutions using alternative architecture such as an on-premise or hybrid model - as long as the solution meets the functional requirements described in Section 5 of the Invitation to Tender document, within the budget as declared in Section 1.3 of the Invitation to Tender document.
